Ok so ur broke AND inconsiderate?

This is not true, and I am arguing pro tipping in this thread. The restaurant can afford to pay us more.

Some smaller ones can't, but I also believe if they can't then their business model is awful and they should go out of business.

Dude stop spamming jesus christ

I did and turned into a forum

what now

All for it
I don't tip at McDonald's tho

are you a lawyer?

Hey f*** you I may be inconsiderate but I’m not broke 😡

Unbelievable how "tipping culture" solidified itself in American culture

Even worse - mfs are shaming you if you don't do it, these corporations who are exploiting their workers really turned you mfs into drones that uphold their dogshit practices

Tokyo From The East has been on fire lately ngl

Thanks daddy I try my best

it’s easy to dismiss section waiting as an easy job but the amount of soft skills you need to have to be good at it is ridiculous
time management, multitasking, communication, conflict resolution, task prioritisation, etc
not to mention it can be physically demanding

like just say you hate the working class

Ain't no one saying tipping culture is right, but considering that the worker isn't paid a fair wage, not tipping them makes you a d***head. Argue it any way you want it. Don't mind if you're a d***head if you want, but just recognize that that's what you are.

You, like the owner of the restaurant, are a d***head.

Did you really just quote yourself with an alt?

Tip or not, the corporation makes the same amount of money, 'not participating' will still give no incentive for companies to change their practices, may as well spare some cash for your fellow man

People have no idea how big that multitasking part is. So many bad servers at my job don't understand how, within a split seconds time, realize they need to hit up 4 or 5 or 6 tasks at once, and many times just do 1 or 2 things at once.

ppl itt have never worked a section at a decent restaurant and feel they can talk about the job

my spiel on it: haven’t worked in restaurant industry so flame me for it

1) the idea that i’m getting the same service done for me, the same job give or take, at two different restaurants, but one I have to tip more at because the food costs more is wrong. i’ve received similar service at both upscale and dive places, i understand that maybe i’m tipping more for the overall experience at the upscale places but i just don’t see that as fair

2) “just eat at home if you can’t afford it” Yea idk chief, i just see this argument as a cop out, but don’t really have reason to back it up, but i guess that groceries are expensive too so nah

3) i understand that at a lot of local spots small restaurants they simply can’t afford to pay a living wage. to them i would say that maybe you shouldn’t be opening a restaurant then idk. relying on the tips of patrons especially in low income areas or college areas is just ducking stupid. don’t take your emotions out on me, take em out on your employer.

4) if you are that down with money then just get a job at a corporate fast food joint that actually pays you a wage and doesn’t rely on tips. just about every fast food place is hiring

i’m not against tipping at all. i just think the recent expectation of 20% in the last 5 years is jokes

all of these have probably been stated before but whatever

I mean if you seriously think you deserve to be getting paid because you have to act nice around others, then you just sound like a s***ty ass person lmao.

If I go to some formal party and have to act nice around strangers, that doesn't mean I think I deserve to get paid. Most people who work have to be nice to their co workers and who they are around. Thats just a simple point of human decency. You don't see me tipping the developers of a video game I buy or tipping somebody for scanning my purchase at a store. That is their job. Serving me is the waiter's job. Unless the waiter went beyond and extra and pointed out that something I'm eating has been overcooked or found some piece of glass before s*** was served to me, they haven't done anything worthy of being tipped.

hollow tips hit different

i dont know anyone who doesnt tip. but its a f***ed up system
