      You mean “fuck places where I’ve been socially obligated to pay someone’s wage instead of their employer”

        Yeah, an actual, genuine TIP where it’s optional for providing good service is fine. The extortion it’s now become is not.

        You literally always pay the wages of the people that work for companies.

            As is this. I have no idea why people here are convinced tipping is somehow bad for employees and good for employers

            It’s literally the same thing you just are more aware of it.

                It’s “how little can I tip before they tamper with my food”

                Normal people never, ever think this.

                    Dude there is a universe worth of difference between eating at a restaurant and being asked to tip like, a good truck or some shit.

                    Baristas post on their social media about giving non-tippers decaf all the time.

                    I’m completely unaware of this, and this is stupid.

                    You tip people who live on tips for a living, and in places of high, but not elite, quality.
