Yeah, all the tipping advocates are probably not aware that most countries don't have tipping. Restaurant staff are paid according to local wages. So a racial minority won't be paid less than someone from the majority race. European and Australian restaurant staff aren't depending on arbitrary tips. They know exactly what they are going to make at the beginning of their shift. They don't feel like they're working for peanuts for rolling napkins or putting chairs on tables.
It's probably not a bad idea to just select the $0 option when the tip screen shows up... until drivers start insisting on seeing you enter your tip before awarding your 5-star rating.
- wcummings 9y agoI think most restaurant staff split tips, so no one will be paid less than anyone else if they get low tips.
- linkregister 9y agoI don't know what percentage of restaurants do that. From my anecdata, few restaurants do it. Also, California law prohibits it.
- walshemj 9y agoI think the op meant the Tronc European style system for distributing tips.
- kelnos 9y agoI believe CA law prohibits sharing tips with the kitchen staff, not pooling tips among the front-room staff. And pretty much every bar/restaurant I know of pools tips, not the opposite as you suggest.
