Furious staff LOCK family inside restaurant for refusing to pay full 17% tip after bad service
A Houston family were locked inside a restaurant and the police were called after they refused to pay the full 17% tip.
That is the amount the restaurant adds to parties of more than five diners, but Mark's complaint was that the staff were rude, their drinks were not refilled and mistakes were made on their orders.
'We asked her, could the gratuity be removed?' said Marks.
'Could we give our own tip?
'I asked the police officer twice, maybe three times, is it against the law if we don't pay the gratuity and he never gave me a straight answer.'

Though you cannot understand why there is NO STATE LAW that abides by the
very fact that NO ONE is under any OBLIGATION to leave said mandatory tip,
as stated. You simply refuse to accept that as an answer, and you have not
given any such proof State by State across these United States of America.
Got it yet n00b
If you really want an attack take it that way to the Podium ----------------> ask the same
question there, and see how you fare over there

Like i said there is NO STATE LAW but also there is no state law either if you order pizza delivery and think that no one is under any obligation to leave said delivery charge.
Also let's be specific here. We aren't talking about optional service tip. We are talking about if the restaurant contractly states that 18% will be part of the food if you choose to order so.
