Customer service @ most truck stop restaurants...

I agree with LOS.

There are many that do not tip. They never tip.
To leave no tip leaves the waitress thinking you never tip.

To leave a penny or nickel makes a statement.
I have gone as far as leave a note on the placemat. " If you had refilled my coffee you would have been tipped."
Only once or twice in 36 years on the road.
I will tip heavy on average service if the place is real slow. She's having a 70cpm kind of day and is there because she has bills,kids to feed,or whatever.
Why not cheer her up. Maybe she'll pass it on.

Since you put it that way, the next time I get crappy service, I will try leaving the note or leaving a penny.

I see poor service in some truck stops, especially from younger people. All I want is a friendly smile and a "Thank YOU". But, I blame management for poor training and not staying on top of employees.
