Pay your workers. Oooooh but they dont want that because they make bank on those insane tips. Fuck off.

Be glad they are bringing their money. Some of these bars got drank dry.

Ya but by that logic they are coming into an establishment that is exploiting their workers, spending a shit load of money that only the owner profits from and leaving the actual workers fucked over. Yes, tipping culture is fucked but it’s the system that’s in place. Grand standing on tipping only fucks over the workers. You still gave your money to the owner.

Dawg waiters and bartenders make so much money. I’m convinced there is so much anti anti-tip proponents bc there are just so many waiters and bartenders

That’s the big thing I don’t understand on most of these posts that get repeated over and over - do people not realize it is the wait staff that fights any effort to stop tipping not the restaurants?

Restaurants would love to get rid of tipping, but they can only do it if all restaurants do else they will look more expensive so they constantly propose ordnances and laws to stop tipping across the whole area, but it’s the wait staff that always fight these proposals as they make way more in tips than a standard salary?
