Servers expect minimum 15 percent and 20 percent gratuity is usually the norm. When I was a server, I worked my ass off every night. Anyone who tips less than 15 percent should eat at Burger King imho.

I still don't get why the customer should have to make up the wages though. Surely that's not their problem ?? Food etc is expensive enough, so another "tip" on top of that seems strange to me.
If you feel like giving a tip, then fine. And the amount should be up to you. That's how it works over here.
With the shitty service most places, hardly anyone gets a tip from me mind you...
