40%?! Why were you forced?

Absolutely! I think predictive text changed the address. But yes, check it multiple times before sending!

Good way to go out of business, tell people they can't eat there if they can't pay YOUR employees🤨

@@Dadupey One way or another, restaurants should pay their employees fairly. It'd be preferred if the restaurant paid a fair wage, but required gratuity would also be acceptable

If it's required it wouldn't be gratuity, that would be called a service fee or something similar. A tip is purely based on discretion. It would also not make sense to require people to tip as the quality of service would go down because there is no reason to care if you know you'll always get a tip.

@@Dadupey Fair enough, service fee then. The reason to care is not getting fired. If you're shit at your job, you'll get fired.

@gabbywolfgang1385 you'ld be surprised, have you ever worked in a small town? Some jobs can't afford to let even the worst workers go or they'll have no staff. And you wouldn't visit a resteraunt again if you got bad service and were forced to tip because you would have no idea if they fired the waiter or waitress because you as a customer have already decided not to go again. Overall a bad idea for businesses to force a tip or charge extra for you to be waited on. Where I currently work pays everyone evenly whether you make the food or serve it and it works perfectly.

Absolutely! I was surprised when I heard how much waiters make

Oh I see, so I should tip based on service, but I tip based on the final bill. Yeah the disconnect you're having isn't that an expensive steak improves service. No, in fact, steak, sandwich or salad, is all the same service quality. Yet the price is completely different from each one. Riddle me this batman, why should I pay more for a service based on a meal, and the quality of the service?

@@dirtysilver2841 I never tip more than $8-10.

@@dirtysilver2841 if I go out and someone pays for my meal, I have been raised that the respectful thing to do is to take care of the tip. In these instances I usually leave $5-7 dollars. If everyone does that, the waitstaff usually comes out pretty well. If I honestly have a bad experience, I won't tip. Not like small stupid stuff, but if the waitstaff is rude or consistently ignore requests for drink refills then that's when I don't tip. I've had a single instance where the waitress wasn't filling my date's drink.

That's fraud. That is completely illegal. If I come back to complain, I'm coming back with the cops.

You need to be fired that's theft. I was a waiter myself no one is obligated to tip you. Find a different job it's not cut out for you. I say that out of understanding seriously leave you deserve better.

... chefs do get payed shit unless they're private or their restaurant does fucking gangbusters, and a good chunk of the tips you pay to wait staff gets payed out to kitchen staff. maybe instead of seeing a problem and going "eh, not mine to deal with", you just call a little more attention to it. most of us arent in the industry by choice and if there is even a whiff of unionization talk, most corporate-owned restaurants will just fire you and take a day or two's losses because not only can they afford it and have "at-will" employment laws to support them, there is an army of high schoolers looking for a bit of pocket money or college kids willing to take your position within days, if not hours. The thing that people like you never seem to grasp is that we're not asking for shitloads of money and the ability to afford every little desire we have, its that all we want is enough after a 40 hour work week to pay rent, eat enough food to not go hungry, have a little entertainment, and enough to put away just a little bit in savings. When my car breaks down, or i get sick and need the doctor, that can drain all of my money and put me in a precarious position. you'll hear stories of people forgoing important medication, not going to the doctor until they physically can't move anymore, and even then, forgoing emergency transportation because an ambulance can cost almost 10k. when you work for a place like Chili's, the corporation that owns them can easily afford to grant its employees a little more security and it just DOESN'T.

You do realize all the happy laughing emojis don't disguise the selfish 🍑 🕳️ words you typed, right?

@@mikaylastrong7622 I don't care. I actually genuinely do not feel bad at all for wait staff and servers. Like I said, it ain't my fault you're weak.

@@sincereflowers3218 Evil ain't a good look, but you do you.

@@mikaylastrong7622 don't condescend t me ya goof troop my point isn't incorrect. Its simply not fucking nice. No one has ever become a millionaire by being nice though 😊

i've always heard that 15-20 percent is the standard. 15 is the polite low, 20 for good service. As a person in the industry, unless im out of money, i will never tip less than 20, because its hell, and its even worse when you live in a place where tipped people get payed less than minimum wage.

@@quinnmarchese6313 we have different views then, I use to be a waitress and 15% is still my standard. They are only responsible for making sure my order is placed correctly and for keeping my drink refilled if they do good at that then I will do 20%. Realistically they shouldn't be tipped at all and should be paid an actual wage.

@@DeusVivit absolutely we shouldn't need to tip and pay that extra bit; it does vary where i am, but this is America, where regular minimum is designed to keep you well below the poverty line, not to mention most states do lower tipped minimums. At least you do 15 as standard and don't seem like the kind of person to not tip at all. i used to live in a state where tipped minimum was the same as regular minimum (both were like 11.something) but now i live in a place where its not the same, and i know how "on your feet" you have to be when managing even just 10 or so tables at a time so i feel some responsibility to tip well and be like "i get it". At the same time, i also am a somewhat a pushover customer, i wont raise a stink to avoid being someones Karen, but i wont just eat the wrong meal. i know how to cook after having working BOH for many years so i dont eat out more than 1-2 times a month and want it to be worth it, but i also know that regardless of how well i behave, a bad customer is infinitely more memorable than a good one and just try not to be that. i've never understood the "if you can't tip 15 percent, dont tip at all" mentality from some servers because any tip is a choice from the customer and having been (and still pretty much am) poor, i know that you just dont always have the ability to tip 20 or even 15 percent, but those assholes who dont tip even when they can, can go right to hell

the ACTUAL actual tipping rule is 15 percent minimum. going below that, unless its an easy rounding (like just 3 bucks instead of 3.15 or something), is just an asshole move, regardless of how you felt about your service. These people have lives, and maybe you met them on a bad day. 20 percent is standard for "good" service; if you have no compaints (and the money, we can understand just not having enough to tip), 20 percent it is.

​@@quinnmarchese6313there is no standard. A tip is incentive to be a good waitperson. The good servers make hundreds a night.

you realise a lot of waiters make way more money through tips than they would being paid minimum wage. work a job as waitstaff and you will learn really quickly that is can be very lucrative especially if it is a nicer restaurant and holiday season

​@@npcpitbullThen during the majority of the year when business is slow, they just have to work second jobs.

@@hobosorcerer it’s their problem for choosing that career. if they want to make money just choose a consistently high paying career. no one is MAKING them be waitstaff

Tips are earned. Your choice of employment is why you have that wage. If all you do is wipe tables and bring food you didn't cook, you don't deserve any form of tip.

@@princetulip8270 so then eat at McDonald's

@@princetulip8270 so maybe next time you eat at a sitdown place, you'll take your own order, walk your own receipt to the kitchen, and wait there for your food to be ready and then when you've finished eating, bring your dishes to the washer and wash them yourself, put them where they belong, pay yourself out, and finally wipe down your table, or you could just give the person that does all that for you five bucks.

Tipping directly contributes to the reason they’re living off tips to begin with idiot.

​@@quinnmarchese6313Or do a good job.

I've always known 15% to be the normal amount, sometimes 18% if you thought the service was especially good

There is no minimum, there is no standard. Tips are way to reward good servers. It's not automatic.

if you said that in public, people would give you bad service just to spite you, just saying. we want tips, sure, but we'll just as soon spit in your food.

He's exaggerating..

@@BelieveThePanda seemed like he was being serious bud

​@aaronsavage8018 ah yes the ignorant comment when someone doesn't have any ground to sound on. When you learn to understand the nuances of a conversation then get back to me

​@@BelieveThePandaOh boy, I love sounding my ground. My lawn only gets played the finest bass riffs known to man.

That's very true! I was shocked when I learned how much waiters get paid in the US

Thank you for watching! Why do you think it's become such a sensitive thing now?

​@@PritchardsWindowCleaning American wait staff are incredibly underpaid and over taxed, often making half the minimum wage and losing 1/3 of their paychecks to taxes. Many live off of tips more than anything else and tipping becomes a matter of livelihood not just courtesy.

A lot of people think it means fighting 😅. I need to be careful about when I use that term
