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.

It's a tax thing. If tips aren't part of the food price, they're not part of revenue and not taxable. If they are, assuming same compensation as tips would generate, taxes would be higher.

I say put that on the food price. It's a few cents to the dollar difference. Plus, variations in revenue shouldn't be a thing an employee should worry about. And obviously it would do away with the whole bartering at the checkout.
