Oh I understand but you don't seem to be aware that there are numerous "service jobs" where people aren't tipped. Teachers are considered a service job when's the last time you tipped a teacher?

The fact is tipping as a means to make up a server's poor wages has become such a part of our culture that even as wages have risen we now consider it impolite not to do it.

Calling teaching a service job is wishy washy

but even if you lie and do your point still falls down

Take the UK for example were waitresses are paid min wage.

Teachers are paid a min salary of 25,700+ even on their first year. With most earning considerably more.

If Waitresses made that then maybe you could argue they don't need tips

As it stands not tipping waitresses in the UK is the difference between whether they eat 1-3 times a day and whether they can turn the radiator on when its freezing cold at night

WTF is a tenner to you? its day to day life altering to people in service jobs who have earned that tip, especially during Covid

You're a horrible person if you refuse to give one
