Absolutely! I generally double the sale tax; having been in low pay 'personal service' jobs myself-golf caddy and waiter. Quite often wait personnell are below minimum hourly wage as the tip is figured in to their pay...and the IRS certainly sees it that way in pusuit of taxes on tips based on a waiter's reciepts. Attenpts to make wages the legal minmum-wage are resisted by restaurant owers; especially in new york as profit margins are slim. Since I'm usually a repeat customer in touristy Napa, I try to keep 'em happy at 16-20% ; and they DO have long memories!
