Why tipping is a scam

[mcdojo]

I also don't understand why some of you think its stupid?


When you tip, you acknowledge that the service and food was good. If it wasn't good than you don't tip. Why some of you guys lose sleep over this topic is beyond me.

Why do must service professions not get tipped then. Servers are guaranteed min wage, and even in states where min wage has gone up to 15 they still expect a tip.

Why are restaurants workers so retarded that they don't actually blame their boss for the low pay (who directly pays them) but blames the customer. Every other professional people would be saying greedy company, cheap company, your employees deserve a living wage.

Now if you believe good service deserves a tip, then I would expect you tip your doctor, surgeon, teacher, lecturer, else you're just cheap!

never understood this. there is a MINIMUM wage for a reason. how do they get around paying at least MINIMUM wage?

state laws, and theyre not always enforced.. since most people aren't cheap and/or poor they tip a little, so it averages out

[seanb1979]

The restaurant industry is the only industry where the customer directly subsidizes the employer's payroll.

Much like the stockholm syndrome suffered by people who defend the interests of corporations over actual people, there is a similar condition where the argument always pits the restaurant workers against the customer. When in reality, they should both be on the same side against the employer, who gets to slink away scot-free.

lol what? how do you think ANY business makes money? customers... customers subsidize 100% of any companies payroll if they sell goods and services to the public... its not like theyre ****ting payroll at the end of the money... where the hell do you think that cash comes from anywhere you shop? get rid of tipping, prices go up to compensate, and guess who pays for that? the ONLY person who pays for anything, the customer

Got a $20 tip today brah. My average is $4

this is the right answer.

the waiters/employee should be going after the employer, not the customers

I tip my pizza man/delivery driver and I tip my waiter if it's a table service restaurant and they're delivering multiple courses and drinks.

That's the extent of tipping in Australia.

[TkHomie]

i delivered pizza for 2 years when i was younger, can confirm we all hate delivering to black people, worst fukin tippers.

best tippers were white couples in their 30s or pretty much any big order

my best tip was 30 dollars from a rich indian family, was happy as fuark


one time, i chit you not, this black family with a pretty big house...the order was 29.70, she gave me 30 dollars, i say thank you and start to leave, she says scuse me, i bert stare her, she wants her 30 cents of change back. Give her a huge fukin sarcastic smile and had to go to my car to dig out 30 cents, took a long ass time on purpose to find it. fukin kunt

shes lucky i never had to deliver to her again, bish woulda regretted it

What would you have done besides fetch her change and cry in the car? Take revenge on someone who isn't legally obligated to tip you and want her change back in full?

If tipping is mandatory in Canada, then I reside my post and she is fuking bish.

Entitled kunt.

It's sad that people can't be expected to do the job that they signed up for without extra incentive.


What a time to be alive.

[MurphDirtyX]

Just at any retard who willingly works for $2.17 an hour. That being said always tip 20% crew.


If service is chit 5-10%.



Brb expect 20% tip when I go half my meal without a drink cause you can't do you the 1 thing your suppose to.

[zackk14]

no tip crew

first of all, no one forced people to be servers so if they make minimum wage, i dont give a fck

in canada, you must tip unless you get ****ty service . they get pulled money of their wage if they dont get tipped but its their fault for not receiving any tbh


heard a group of 10 + was in a drinking party and the servers had a big tab of $800 , no tip received, servers had to pay $80 or so out of their own pockets. basically breaking even for the night. their fault for not getting a tip or even once mentioning it to the drunkies so they quit after their shift.

This isn't true at all.

Is the whole "black people don't tip" thing legit? Or just something racist as*holes say? Can a few black miscers confirm?

I was good friends with a black dude a few years ago. Sadly he did not tip anyone for anything. I still remember how he took me to a barbershop he frequented and I could see the look of dread on the barbers faces lol...I soon figured out why. He did not tip anything and told me he never has in all the years he has been going. When I asked him why he got all defensive so I just left it alone lol. If he ordered delivery they were not getting a tip. Go out to eat? no tip no matter how good the service was.

This is obviously only one guy so take it with a grain of salt.

This is a stereotype, not racism. From years of experience in the service industry I can attest that there is some truth to it, that is, the average black customer is more likely to leave a worse tip than the average white customer.

[HollywoodBody]

agree 100%. just another scam on the common folk. srs

The "dude, waiters make $2 per hour" thing is TRUE but it's true because restaurants know they can get away with making suckers tip 20% and essentially pay the staff for them. It's ****ing retarded.

I've been outside of the US for 7 months now living abroad and now when I leave a tip it's cause service was GREAT.

And guess what? It's actually appreciated, since it's not ****ing mandatory.

A restaurant stayed open late for me and a girl yesterday so I tipped them like 25% extra and they were shocked.

[HollywoodBody]

Also this totally illustrates why we can't get rid of real problems in government and society.. corruption, bull**** laws that make no sense, etc.

We cannot even get the tipping thing fixed. Restaurants don't pay waiters because we tip, so we have to tip, so they can keep not paying. It's impossible to fix as an average person. and it goes on forever. Not to get all political but it's interesting to think about. We cannot even change something as small as how restaurant staff are paid.

Imagine trying to change how our government handles money, etc.

Ive read that the tipping culture came because business owners didnt want to pay black people money when slavery was abolished

Are you even American asking a question like that? You know exactly what happens if you don't tip if you are

[Peasantfighter]

worst are the pizza delivery guys who hang around outside your door smiling awkwardly waiting for you to hand something over.

usually just shut the door on them.

[DrunkPanda18]

future will have robot servers... no need to tip.. problem solved

Inb4 robot waiter is programmed to spit in customers food if they don't tip

[E90335i]

Tipping does make sense. People work harder and are rewarded for their effort.
People who suck, make less money.
If everyone makes the same, then there is no reward for effort.
Just like sales, rewarded for effort. It's how it should he. Unlike all you millennials who think they deserve $100k out of college and then won't tip. Douchebags everywhere.

[GetJimmyWidIt]

I Manage a Restaurant...so unless you work in the food industry.. you have no argument as to how hard or easy the job of a server is. Some restaurants or occasionally some nights it may be easy and slow. But in general, the job isn't insanely hard, its the general attitude of most customers and the clear lack of respect and consideration that make the job difficult and time consuming. Working in Law Enforcement for a brief time I can honestly say you need more patience working in a restaurant.

But its funny, the people that are cheap or don't Tip, usually are anti-social cucks. I would say 9/10 of people who are extremely cheap with tipping are pretty ****ing brain dead and can't even verbalize what their ****ing order is or even listen to when the waiter repeats it back to them. Ironically the customers who bitch constantly and complain about food in attempts to get free **** every time they come in, Tip pretty well.
