I love being a waitress in a World Cup city. Made 20 dollars in tips off of 30 tables last night. Would normally make me around 200. Fucking Europeans.

I’m 100% of the mindset that you follow the customs of the place you’re visiting. I don’t tip in Europe, I DO tip in the U.S.

Unfortunately we can’t hate them too much since they’re used to wait staff actually getting a living wage

No we absolutely can. When we go to their countries they get extremely pissy if we don’t assimilate perfectly to their culture immediately, but they can’t follow one rule of ours?

And if they’re not going to tip, I don’t need the same lecture about how they won’t tip because somehow them not tipping is supposed to make my boss pay me more.

it has pretty much the opposite effect of incentivizing higher wages 😂

I mean, I get it but like it’s also not a rule we have. It’s more of a common courtesy thing that’s the social norm. Hating groups for stupid reasons like this is a huge part on why the world sucks rn

Tipping your server is a cultural norm here, not doing so is incredibly rude and looked down on. I will hold them to those same standards.

You can hold them to it but it’s still not a reason to hate the whole group of people.

I have as much reason to hate on them as I do anyone else who doesn’t tip.

I just don’t see why we need to hate an entire population over something so small. Yeah, not getting tips sucks but I don’t see anyone dying because they didn’t get a tip

Should we? Yeah. Will we? No, because either way they’ll refuse.

It’s so funny that you think me being mad about making a tenth of my normal wage is me hating all Europeans. News flash! I’m an Italian citizen! I’m allowed to hate us, because I am us!

Privileged? Alright bud, I’m pay check to paycheck, I just cut 95% of my luxuries. It’s not their fault employers don’t pay their own staff enough. If you don’t make enough to cover expenses then you need to change something with how you live. This isn’t me saying I don’t tip, I’ll tip based on how I think the wait staff did. Thats what a tip is supposed to be for. Tips aren’t supposed to supplement your wage.

Is that not what you’re doing in the main post? Bitching about not getting tips from Europeans?
