In my country, tipping is limited to rounding up a few cents to the nearest 20 or 50 crowns. Servers make good salary, they make what they're worth without having to busk. The customer is not expected to directly pay their wages. Servers are good servers because that's their job and they're professionals, not because they're hoping to get extra reward for doing the job they're being paid well for already.
