Fck the NY Post! It is a tRumpian rag not worthy of fishwrap.
#PAY YOUR FUCKING STAFF
It’s not “culture” it’s unfettered capitalism. Make your staff beg your customers for their wage instead of paying it yourself, great for bosses.
I visited the US 3 years ago and tipping was a bloody pain in the bum. It added probably 20min to our meal as the waiters took a while to get change. Further, asking every 15 minutes how our meal was going was quite exhausting; mainly because we knew it was performative for more tips. We tipped 20% each time but it’s really, really frustrating not knowing the price up front.
Back home, I’m used to paying up front and then leaving as soon as we’re done. Waiters leave you alone, unless you’re a regular, and ask you how the meal was at the till if you pay after.
I’ll never understand why the “pull yourself up by your bootstraps” people see it as everybody else’s responsibility to cushion the inumerable blows from their abusive relationships with their employers.
Oh what ever shall we do? The cash registers are bursting with cash due to the influx of visitors… but they’re not tipping the servers.
I see absolutely no way that employers could make the situation fairer for servers, even if it were only for the duration of the event.
Gosh, if only there were some way!
I know what we have to do is hard but we can involve but punching your boss in the dick
Are drinks and food at least cheap in restaurants in the US? Cos then the high tips could at least be a tiny amount justified.
Should we pay an actual wage?
NO! ITS EVERYONE ELSE WHO ARE WRONG!
Welcome to America, where we subsidize poverty level wages by adding 20-30% to your bill!
Can you eveb get a sollar outage of the sun so why you nakeing these people pay for the frotrage. Minnesota? No I don’t do that
Fuck american tipping culture… Pay your staff fair…
The cash registers are ringing, the beer is flowing and the tables are full.
I live in KC. The restaurants are not full. I’ve seen article after article about how lodging reservations were low before the tournament and now that it’s started, no one is filling restaurants.
They should try to change this terrible custom
Fighting back against what? Pay your employees.
