OT: Restaurant surveys

Miami, FL (or the nearest big-booty club)
Last week I was at Olive Garden for lunch. Olive Garden has a small electronic tablet on each table that can be used for various things including calling your server and paying your bill (if using a credit/debit card).
When using the tablet to pay for my meal, the server asked me if I could please fill out the survey that pops up on the tablet (but that you can skip) after your bill is paid - she said something along the lines of it helps them (server) get points, or something like that.
I fill out the surveys once in a while but usually just do it once per restaurant I visit (if I do it at all) - but apparently it's a bit of a big-deal for the restaurant/staff b/c I also recall a server saying the same thing a while back to the people at the table next to me at Outback Steakhouse - at least at Olive Garden one can do it on the spot via the tablet and it's only about 5 multiple choice questions.
Anyway - just some FYI if a server asks you in the future about completing a survey and you want to help him/her out.

Which is just why sometimes I would rather just tip the server well and be done with it :-/
