This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Since a lot of places require the employees be paid at least minimum wage including tips, it would impact the owner directly and immediately...if everyone stopped tipping.

Keyword if, if everyone voted third party they'd win too, the rub is "that isn't going to happen."

Furthermore, so everyone doesn't tip, now that employer has to pay the guy a whole $43.50 for the day, the employer barely notices and the waiter chooses whether to pay his power bill or his water bill this month.
