The husband handled the check and left 20% of the bill, but the wife encouraged him to leave at least 20% of the bill. They also discussed the importance of showing appreciation for good service and the wife reminded him that sometimes it's not the server's fault, but there could be other things going on in the kitchen or restaurant that they weren't aware of.

Thanks for handling the check, dear.
gpt
No problem, hun. Did you leave a good tip?
human
Yeah, I left about 20% of the total bill.
gpt
That's great. I always try to leave at least that much.
human
Me too. It's important to show appreciation for good service.
gpt
Definitely. Speaking of service, do you remember that one time we had terrible service at that Mexican restaurant?
human
Oh yeah, I remember. That waiter forgot about us for over 30 minutes.
gpt
And when he finally did come over, he was rude and dismissive.
human
I remember leaving a very small tip that day.
gpt
I don't blame you. But I think it's important to still leave something, just to show that you're not just stiffing them.
human
That's a good point. It's just frustrating when we go out to eat and don't get the service we expect.
gpt
I know, but usually it's not the server's fault. There could be a million other things going on in the kitchen or restaurant that we're not even aware of.
human
That's true. I guess we should always try to be understanding and patient.
gpt
Exactly. And always leave a good tip for good service.
