You sound a lot like me in that I don't tolerate nutbaggery very well. It means I don't/won't go back to places where it occurs as they don't deserve my money and there's always a different option to choose.
Service is declining so rapidly, disinterested staff, zero care-factor, and lack of training from ill-equipped manages/owners with no clue...it's not a recipe for success and I simply won't give them my money.
I agree. I think we think along the same lines in that regard.
On the opposite end of that, if I receive excellent service, I make it a point to go back and also leave a very good tip, so they know I noticed and appreciate their effort and value their time.
Oh yeah, I do that too...although tipping isn't a thing here. Showing genuine gratitude in a world leaning into selfishness makes a person stand out and apart in good ways and I believe in doing so where appropriate.
