Haha, this was funny because I went to a donut shop to order 4 donuts, and the young lady at the counter actually asked me: Would you like to tip me? And I'm like: Um, no.
This isn't the worker's fault. It's the laws and industries that will forever pass on the payroll costs of their employees to the customer while pocketing the difference.
For people in the service industry, sure. I don't do anything else that would require a gratuity so I don't see this very often. But if someone has a tip jar in someplace that isn't performing a service for me I'll just ignore it. If they have a problem with that they can take it up with their manager.
Since when has minimum wage ever worked?! It’s called collective bargaining and unionisation. That’s the only way to really allow workers to be paid fairly
As ridiculous as minimum wage is, many if these service workers don't even make minimum wage. Minimum wage needs to be raised but employers also need to pay their employees. People should be paid a living wage. They shouldn't have to depend on tips.
I tipped my weed lady 70 cents. That’s all she gets. No one else gets a tip. You all get your packages and I get no god damned tip ever. Talk about privilege.
The harsh reality of the States monetary system. People arent paid a living wage. Health insurance and tax if theyre lucky. A large population allows this? When i lived in the States I realised i was supporting peoples actual living wage.
The recent pandemic changed the tipping game. It was never a thing to tip for take out. It’s my impression that the norm is 10% for take out, and 25% for dine-in. While I do it, tipping for take out sometimes makes me feel taken advantage of by others. Other times, I’m just grateful that I’m not dependent on tips to make ends meet. At best, I believe I’m helping establishments I value to survive because they’re still bouncing back slowly from the pandemic.
Who decided that 25% is normal? That’s is insane to have to tip almost an extra half of the full price of anything. 18% at the most has always been standard and imo already too high
@@audionerd8821 I don’t know who decided that. But it’s listed on the receipts that calculate the amount for you. It was promoted during the pandemic to help offset loss of business due to those pandemic policies. I’ll do it for excellent service, but stay with 20 for regular service. Truth be told, I’d rather pay 25% for good dine in service, than 10% for takeout. I need to at home more.
I only give tips in restaurants and to the mechanics that do my oil change. Even the waitresses will get a 15% tip, if they give me a good service. I tip a certain way. If I'm sitting down and that my glass of water is empty, if it takes more than five min for her to fill up my cup, then I reduce the tip to ten%. If it takes another five min or more, she doesn't any tip. I also tell her that I don't tip when I don't get a good service.
It's not the wage that people who get tips make less then minimum wage. If this changes then tips would probably go away. The business shouldn't get a break by giving an employee less then a proper hourly wage just cause they earn tips.
While I sympathize with servers it is unreasonable to expect customers to pay servers salaries. A lot of people can only afford to go out to eat on special occasions. The portions are very small and then having to leave a tip. Some fast food chains pay more to be a cashier than a server at a restaurant. Maybe they should look into that, it would be much easier.

Exactly for handing me 2 dounts. Really ?
Damn right
this woman is my hero
Why? Not everyone deserves a tip for doing their job
Same this is getting BEYOND OUTRAGEOUS 😅
Just stop eating out. Win for wallet and win for weight!
The problem is that tip jars aren't just at restaurants, now you see them in random shops too

They want a tip for doing their job…..

In most cases I tip according to the discount the employee has given me. No discount? It works both ways.

I hate seeing a big tip jar with the sign "help send me to college" when i go to get ice cream. Truly deplorable.
Absolutely agree 👍

Hmmm...everyone who works is providing some sort of service. Consumers should not have to tip for the deficit in wages.

Raising the minimum wage doesn't and hasn't worked one bit!

You sound like a tool
Yeah, they know we're gonna tip regardless, so they don't care about service
Severs don't want to be paid more because they make so much more money from tips even on bad days it evens out.
