I would do as Chris says. I would inform each and every table I waited on that tips go to the OWNER, not to the servers so no tip is necessary. Many customers will work themselves up over this and probably do something about it whether it's talking to the manager, or secretely handing tips to the waitress - and even if the owner comes over to take that tip the customer will surely put up a fight.
In other businesses like salons when the owner receives a tip he usually disperses it amongst the staff.
I mean come on, who'd want a waitressing job if it weren't for the tips?
