You’re right. I should just not go there at all, watch the business collapse, and see them beg for jobs at the next shitty restaurant. That’s the better option apparently?
That is the high road tbh… plus you can just go to joints that not require tipping. They are on the rise.
Also, many places just slap 20% now anyway… so we are in some clown reality where it is now a service fee and owner can just take it because they pay minwage lol
Very few restaurants ‘require tipping’ to order there. That’s a recent trend, automatic tips. Used to be if there are over X amount of people at the table, but some places made it automatic across the board.
Okay, but you’re now arguing against your earlier assertion where you said that was common and is now going away. Schrodinger’s Mandatory Tipping Restaurant, simultaneously common and uncommon.
yes. you accidentally hit on the decent thing to do. if you can’t afford tipping in the context of a system that forces individuals to rely on it, go buy groceries.

Even clowns in EU now expect tips if they think you are american…
