If I saw this sign, I’d walk out of the place and go elsewhere. Pay your workers what they deserve!

I say both because businesses do build it into their financial plan because it is how the industry does it, not necessarily because they want to. Thus the shitty sign.

A lot of people choose serving jobs bc tips are a non guaranteed way to make ABOVE minimum wage on good nights. Thats why a recent bill in MA to require minimum wage ($15/hr) for servers and then pool tips across the entire restaurant staff didnt pass, servers want their tips bc minimum wage isnt high enough to live. The system is bad but for some its better than the alternative. This is not black and white and its not just about you as a consumer.

The system is not better than the alternative of a living minimum wage

Yes LIVING minimum wage which is NOT the current alternative to tipping culture which was the point of my example. When minimum wage is livable THEN tips can be annexed but thats not the case rn in ANY state. I was a server myself when the bill was proposed and did the math. Id have been making almost $8/hr less if they took my tips at the current minimum wage even assuming the pooling wasnt terrible

You said “the alternative,” living wage no tip is an alternative. The rhetoric saying otherwise or that the current system is better than change is propaganda from industry giants to keep labor reform from passing.

I didnt say the current system is better than any change but you know damn well these greedy corps wont pay employees more than minimum. Annexing tips AS MIN WAGE CURRENTLY IS only hurts workers. The only labor reform needed here is an increase to minimum wage. When minimum wage is livable THEN tips can be removed from the system. I wont entertain someone who refuses to see that there are multiple levels to the issue. Have a blessed day.

i’m a tipped employee and i like getting tips but i don’t think it should comprise such a large amount of my paycheck. tipping makes my pay proportionate to the work load which makes sense in service jobs like a restaurant where the amount i work is directly linked to how busy it is. but still a large portion of my work/what i want compensation for is being there physically and doing all the required side work required to keep the place running.

yes i do spend a lot of time providing service to customers but per customer it’s very little time and they shouldn’t be paying a ton extra for that. on the whole way more of my time is spent being on call to take care of customers, and doing things like cleaning, stocking, prep work, inventory, etc which is service i provide for my employer and often much more difficult/intensive than like taking a customers orders and then bringing them food

you’re just pissing off the employees who get paid so little and not affecting the profit margins of the employer who posted this like at all

i like getting tipped because in a restaurant or service job the amount of work is proportionate to how busy it is. but i do agree it should be a smaller portion, i would much rather get my expenses paid by my employer and have tips be an extra bit of money to make working busy shifts worth it than relying on tip money to make a decent wage
