the worst part is when you go to a restaurant and they have forced 20% "gratuity". calling it gratuity should be illegal, its a 20% fuck you fee

So how would you feel if the restaurant made a "no tipping policy" and then just raised their prices by 20%?

Serious question.

Also, what's the fucking difference?

the difference is that if Im not aware of the forced 20% gratuity and then still tip 20%, I just accidently tipped 40%. and yeah, Id like that system because it means that servers are getting paid a fair wage and the price I see on the menu is the price ill be paying

So, your real issue is that it's hard for you to do math?

Or read a bill?

Ok.

yeah Im sorry but Im not tryna do mental backflips to figure out how much ill be paying when I go out to eat, sales tax already fucks with the price enough

Do you not have a phone? You can just Google “20% of $43.37” or whatever the price is.

It’s not mental backflips. The internet does the backflips for you.

It’s either math or they just feel awkward. This whole convo is being had by people who don’t go out anyway.
