If yall dont like tipping then dont go out to eat


So if I don't tip, I am not allowed to eat?

What kind of shit ass logic is this?


It's not complicated, if you can't afford to leave a whopping $4 gratuity for a $20 meal, then don't go to a sit-down restaurant and take your ass to McDonald's.

Imagine spending $200 on a meal and not leaving a tip. You can afford to waste that much money on a meal but you can't afford to tip?


Tips are to be earned. They are not 'mandatory.' If you want a tip, you have to work for it. It is perfectly fine to go out for a fancy dinner and not tip if the service was not up to par.

That said, why is it that 'tipping' is based on a percentage of the meal? A server bringing a $10 meal is doing the same work as one bringing a $50 meal, are they not?


No. A $50 meal has far more to it and usually indicates a group larger than 1 or two...

If you're somewhere where a $50 meal has the same value/quantity as a $10 meal, wtf are you doing with your money?


Uh... no. Different quality food makes a difference in cost. A server does not cook the food, they merely take the order and bring it out to you. It is the same amount of work to do this on a $10 meal as it does a $50 meal.

I guess I should've stated per plate costs. PER PLATE it is the same amount of work.


More people to serve means higher work volume. More plates, more work. Thus, higher tip for the increased effort. And as stated before, the cook is being paid properly already. The server is not.

Working to serve a group of six is vastly different from serving one or two and much more intensive.


...That is not the point I am arguing. A $50 plate is the same work as a $10 plate. Why does the $50 plate result in a larger tip?

And kitchen staff are often NOT paid 'properly.'

Not in all places, sure. Kitchen staff do get shitted on and are forced to split tips with servers sometimes.

And if we're talking about a single plate, okay. But...the $50 plate should have more to it. And I'm still going to have to ask why the fuck you're dropping $50 on a single plate if it has the same amount of effort as a $10 plate...

Effort on behalf of the server. Quality of food makes up a LOT of the difference in price. There are times where you get less food for more money.

Funny you say that because not tipping was one of Uber's main selling point when they first started out

But tipping culture always finds a way to ruin everything

Because customers tipped anyway despite being told not to.

It is. As you know, you never leave tips with Uber, unless you are weird. I just leave 5 stars. 4 or less if they talk to me. I HATE that.

Uber encourages conversation. Make it clear you're not up for conversation when you get in.

If you get the order right, keep my drink filled, make sure i got some fucking napkins and dont talk to me like you are offended by customers... I'll leave a fat tip.

If any of those are infringed upon, fuck your tip. Y'all already charge gratuity, I wont add any more to your paycheck when you dont even want to earn it. If its super busy, alright i might let it slide and leave some pocket change.

Maybe you should inform them of your disinterest in conversation instead of being a hack hmm

"Complains about 'poor' worker conditions where they actually get paid a lot, says company is evil"

"Is in favor of a culture where the worker is NOT PAID ENOUGH, so you must make up for it by tipping and everyone should be doing it or otherwise the worker will be treated like **** and they will have to pay the tip out of their pocket"

That sums up most of people who are pro Tip

People who oppose tipping are people who simply don't understand how money, business, or economics in general work and think that if there was no tipping, the only result would be that you didn't have to leave a 20% service fee. You know, the type of people who voted for Bernie Sanders actually believing that everything should be free.

Scenario: You wake up early one morning and want to go to the diner for a cup of coffee, some toast and an omelet to... I don't know, think about life before starting your day. You order, your food is served, you finish, and ask for the check.

Tipping: The waiter drops off an eight dollar check and you tip them 25%, and you pay a total of ten dollars. "Omg exploitation of labor! Corporate greed! Leeching off the consumer!"

No tipping: The waitress drops off a ten dollar check, eight dollars for the food and two dollars to cover wages, and you pay a total of ten dollars. "That's social justice. That's a living wage. That's power to the people!"

Hint: When you go out to eat, there's actually TWO contracts there. One between you and the house, for the food, and one between you and the waiter, for the service. ...you're going to pay for the service either way. Go try living in a country with no tipping. When I was living in Germany and Italy the service was miserable.

and how does that happen? laws. and how does that happen? when the people demonstrate they want it. continuing to tip isnt demonstrating to anyone that you want it gone.


Oh gee. It seems like you're in the goddamn minority.

how? everyone here has agreed in some capacity that tipping is a stupid fucking concept its just that some here think its a sin to attempt to fight for changes that we all want


You remember that thing I said about corporations having us strung up by the gonads and wallets? Every single time you go their business, those corporations do not give a damn if you tip. If you buy their food, the only people who care if you tipped are on the immediate local level.

The corporations see that you simply paid for their product and if you do it repeatedly, that's all they see. Not tipping will never ever convince them to pay proper wages. Because they don't see that. For your pathetic movement to work, you have to all stop spending money at those corporations. That is literally the only way they will sit up and take notice. And it will never happen.

If you go the legeslative route, you're up against lobbyists and millions if not billions of dollars to keep things the way they are.

change starts with the individual

agree. Individual act doesnt always mean success but it is done as a way to trigger a movement .

LunarSavage must be a waiter.
