Tipping on the other hand should had always be optional, it should never be required. Why stores and restaurants used tipping as mandatory pay is illegal.

I work in a restaurant and we have a few customers who phone in their order, swiftly take it away and eat it on the bench next to our restaurant (it’s in the middle of a business district). They politely decline extra condiments/utensils, and they don’t stick around for even a second of small talk. They just get their food and go. No tip necessary. I appreciate these people! Like, if you mustn’t tip then don’t but then don’t stick around and make 5,000 special requests and expect to be served and bussed by a $7/hr service person. Choose the appropriate adventure!

Seriously if I order $100 meal and u expect me to pay $20 in tips on top of $25 fees? This needs to 🛑. And some restaurants secretly sneaking 15-20% fee and then have an additional option for tips?

i agree. tipping should be cash handed to driver after you get stuff. but it may not be drivers fault something is missing. like the place forgot to add pickles to your burger. drivers are turning down orders cause no tip or not big enough on app. customer may have a twenty in his hand waiting though. drivers signed up at those rates. any tips should not be expected but be thankful if you do get them. dont like the pay rates go mow lawns or be a dentist.

It's your job to make the coffee, it's your job to get the luggage out of the cab, it's your job to clean the room. Housecleaning: $5/per room-day x 20 rooms = $100 more PER DAY, tax-free if they "forget" to report it. Average salary in my state for housekeepers is around $16/hr. Meanwhile, someone on salary would have to get a raise of $16.66/hr to match that after taxes. I can see why those BEING tipped wouldn't want it to go away, it can double your take home wages with no extra effort. And employers would balk at having to pay $30/hr for someone to do menial tasks.

It's actually LEGAL for restaurants to charge FOH staff a reimbursement fee for credit card tips! So on top of paying out: bar back, busser, food runner, expo, hostess etc we now have to compensate for the guest to charge their tip! We were only taking home 70-75% of tips prior and now it's an extra $100 per month (ave, if you work 4-5 shifts per week). I don't buy food at work to balance that loss. Service will not go down if we move away from a tipped system. In Europe, they pay staff living wage and service is fine not to mention customer service in general is at all time low across the board, so why do we put up w a tipped system anymore?) All we're doing here is perpetuating a financial caste system.

In NYC, when a fancy restaurant owner owns an expensive car, has a mansion and accumulates a profit to create more restaurants, customers are obligated to tip. The owner pays less than an hourly wage to the workers, and asks them to demand tips from customers because he cannot ( does not want to is close to the fact ) pay them enough, other restaurants do the same, and it is customary. We need a tipping war. It is time for customers to stop tipping and ask owners to pay workers fairly wage because the owner is the employer.
