is it terrible that me and my girlfriend tipped 1 cent? here's the story:

we went to bubble world, which usually has pretty good service and food times, so we went last saturday and the restaurant was 60% full, not bad right? Well. There was 2 waitresses, 1 who would seat people and take one half of the restaurant, the other would take ours. So we already knew what we wanted to get, and it was only 2 dishes. First of all, she comes to our table 10 minutes after we're seated, and then, basically just doesn't say anything when she brings the water and puts the water on our table and walks away.

Anyway, so when she came back 5 mins after that we decided to order our 2 dishes. Just after 6-7 minutes or so, 2 more tables were seated, these tables came a good 20 minutes after us, and it was 2 people to each table. Anyway, one table ordered 2 drinks and 3 dishes, and the other table ordered 4 dishes and 2 drinks. Well, we waited 30 minutes, and we finally get our food. Chicken was overcooked to death, fish was bland.

And guess what? The two tables before us got their whole meal before us. We even had to wait for the fish to come out because they didnt come out at the same time.

So, basically, we waited around 45 minutes for our food, terrible pissed off waitress giving us attitude, terrible food (which i remembered isn't usually like this), disorganized kitchen (in the kitchen it's always first bill in first bill out, so what the fuck happened?) Well yeah so it's time to pay our bill, she gets that quickly. We didn't say anything to her and left her only 1 cent for the tip. Too harsh or correct move? I think she should have realized that she deserved it.
