I often overtip, and always am aware of tipping, because I have had so many friends who earned a living being waiters and bartenders while trying to become actors. I do not feel it is necessary to tip someone who has been overly rude or unhelpful, and the group of people who most often fit into the "not tipped or undertipped" category for me are taxi drivrs. I have withheld a tip more than once, or made it very small, and have been cursed soundly on occasion. Once my friend and I were followed out of a restaurant by a waitress who we'd tipped at just under 15% for getting the order wrong, being rude when we told her (nicely), talking to her friends while our corrected order sat in the pickup window and never bringing us our drinks. We should have stiffed her, but I do acknowledge that no one makes a living from a waitress' salary.
