Actually pay restaurant workers a decent wage goddammit!
I can't agree more. Tips should be considered an "occasional" extra. This kind of bullshit try to shift the responsibility of the indecent low salaries to customers who already pay the full price of the service.
We call it charity elsewhere. It's a good thing but you shouldn't build an economic system in top of it
I do not agree on that. Charity is something you give for free without receiving nothing in return (except billionaire tax-cut apparently). A Tip is a surplus you give to someone as "reward" to a particularly well done job as symbol of satisfaction.
This should still be treated as an "occasional extra", the true income stability comes from "decent" paid jobs.
So what do you call it if it's neither occasional nor extraordinary as it seems to be the case here?
No tip 👌
Well it seems like everyone else in the US calls it 15%, if not 25 or 30% now acfording to this thread, so yeah ill stand by charity
Literally anyone (with taxable income) is eligible to write off a charity donation, including billionaires. But it's not only for billionaires.
I mean, the city I live in requires at least minimum wage paid to service staff. It's like $20/hour. They're not going to decrease their tipping expectations because you know, greed is a thing
Which is why I decrease the expectations for them regardless of their opinion on the matter.
