The issue is: why are restaurants not paying their staff “proper” wages? Why are they the outlier, subsidised by customers?
If I eat at a restaurant, I already know I need to tip to make up the embarrassing gap between what the restaurant pays them and what a proper wage would be. Just raise your stupid prices to account for that and let me not do math after I eat.
But no, the Great Unwashed love a good illusion, so posting the actual price of a meal will drive them away. Adult society is full of toddlers.
Weeg, I honestly don’t have a list with wage tables for each restaurant that I visit.
Don’t restaurants have to obey minimum wages? If they do, the waiters earn just like everyone else. If they don’t, then why the f don’t they?
In most places wait staff only need to be paid the minimum wage if their next-to-nothing wage plus tips doesn’t exceed minimum wage.
It’s not our problem.
They can work in a gas station and ern proper minimum wage. However, they want the tips because the are not taxed and add up to a healthy paycheck.
It’s insanity to shame people into tipping. (IMO)

If you say it’s not your problem and still go out to eat you’re a dick and you’re full of shit.
Where is minimum wage livable?
