Do you "tip" your Buffet "attendant" the same as your restaurant "server"? (I Do)
If not, "why" not?

No replies, so here's the rational.
At a buffet, I don't "pile" up food on my plates, as some people do.
I place small portions of food on my plates as if it was received in a restaurant.
Therefore, I go up to the buffet around a dozen times or more, between the salad, soup, entree's and desert.
Requiring the attendant returning to our table a dozen or so times clearing the plates, as well as refill my beverage glass. And then bring/serve coffee at the end.
In a restaurant the server, although brought the food, only comes to my table around 3 to 4 times. (so 20%)

I'm not sure I've ever attended a buffet. Restaurants yes, but buffet? Not that I can bring to mind. Perhaps that's what happens at the Longboat, I've eaten there a couple of times, I'd need to be advised but I've certainly never tipped anyone in the Longboat. Pubs are not restaurants. Neither are cafes. A cafe proprietor would be bemused if offered a tip.

When you design tactics to maximise suffering on civilian populations and your only constraint is operational rather than moral, you've told the world who you are.

I seldom dine at buffets. With rare exception, I no longer consume enough of the food to justify the price.

I rarely go to buffets also, but when I do I always tip, but then I've been known to tip people at drive-thrus. If I take the family out to eat and I pick up the bill they are required to leave a minimum tip of $5.00 each, and that includes a $5.00 tip from each child they bring. Needless to say, our servers are usually well compensated and pleased to see us return.
I would prefer servers and everyone else was paid a living wage instead of slave wage and dependant on the goodwill of the customer. I'd probably still tip though because I tip just about everybody.
What good is money if it can't buy you love?

The problems with Buffets is that the plates always seem to be so small - not much more than a saucer, so it always seems as if you have to pile things up.

You're going to the wrong Buffets, I think.
When we did go to Buffets, we always left a tip. There was place called Country Kitchen that a lot of family members used to like going to.
When we went, I always left a tip on the table. Usually about five bucks per member of our party.
