Tips should be abolished and restaurants should be collextivised.
All work should bare minimum yield a difnified living with free time.
God damn it. Some shit is just blisteringly infuriating.
In this same spirit I had someone tell me some days ago how progressive Germany is where they have refunds on glass bottles and some people leave them outside for homeless people to collect.
Like, why have homeless people in the first place? Why tip instead of pay them correctly?
isn’t it so progressive that homeless people can pick up after me?
Same in Canada. “Oh look I’m helping the poor by littering my soda bottles so they can scrounge around and pick it up for me!” Yeah screw you, you’re just using that as an excuse to litter and the rest of your actions make it clear that you can’t give two shits about the poor.
Tipping for a wage is such a dystopian process. Literally making a worker dance like a monkey for 3 hours for a table only to get a 5 dollar tip on a $300 party of 8.
Also, the notion that good service gets you good tips has been thoroughly debunked by numerous studies. Corrected for other factors, the amount you get for tips is essentially random and not at all correlated with service quality. And not corrected for other factors like the real world is? Tips are correlated with your ethnicity, gender, dress, makeup and hair style, and how attractive you look in general. So not to be melodramatic, but tipping is literally the enablement of systematic discrimination.
Tipping is morally wrong but I still tip. Right now cutting off a tip only hurts the workers.
Remember, only give cash if you can, and split up the tip into smaller bills. That lets the worker hide the majority of the tip so they can take home the tax free cash, while preventing a boss from “taking some off the top”.
Agreed. Abolishing tipping is not about you not tipping, it’s about everyone not tipping once and only once service workers are already being ethically compensated for their work.
The only unskilled labor is whatever Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk think they do that nets them billions for doing jack shit.
