    Fuck anon.

    Edit: and fuck your downvotes. If you’re not willing to make food yourself then tip your servers.

      If you believe no tipping will leave waiters to starve with no money, that’s not true. The very reason they are so severely underpaid is that restaurants know they’ll get their income from tips.

      The less tips there are, the more your employer will have to pay you - in a form of salary that is way more predictable and reliable than tips.

      Customers, on their end, will know price in the menu is final, and they won’t add crazy extra just so that they won’t feel like worst people on Earth.

      In my country, tips do exist, but you are not expected to leave them by default and it’s totally fine and common not to. The result? Waiters get livable wage and can last a month without ever receiving a single tip (which they actually have, too, from time to time).

        yeah this is how we know it’s okay to ignore the rest of your comment. really rich of you to preach virtue on the actions of alienated individuals under a system far more oppressive and antagonistic than your own. really makes a powerful argument.
