  • I was a server in addition to an Office Assistant that adjusted payroll among other things in the hospitality industry here in the U.S.
    -That additional amount is supposed to be made up for by the employer if the server doesn’t make enough in tips. If as a server you are not making at least 7.25/hr in wages or alternatively in combined pay and tips then you need to contact your local states Department of Labor because you’re likely having wages stolen.





  • You agree to tipping by using services and patronising businesses where tipping is customary. Let’s not act like you don’t understand this ahead of time. People only argue against tipping in these fields to this degree because they want to virtue signal as a cope for making waiters, bartenders, porters, delivery drivers, etc just as poor as they are. -Which is too poor to use or patronize these businesses in the first place.

    –They could also simply be astroturfing to sow discord.

    If you really care about the businesses paying their staff the full wages then you understand that either way the cost will still be passed onto the patrons, regardless, and the people that claim to be upset are arguing over a pedantic order of operations in the finances.


  • “I mean this is the better way to do it honestly.”

    It’s not. The better way is for people who don’t want to tip to stop going out to places or using services where tipping is customary. That way nobody is increasingly encouraged to perform labor for less than they’re work is worth. If there are not enough customer’s because of this then the businesses will change or perish. All of this anti-tipping sentiment leads me to believe is that if these customers were to trade places with the owners then they’d pay their laborer’s just as little.
