- andrepd 8y agoIt's a way for employers to shift, by way of ingrained culture, some of the labour costs onto the customer.
- isostatic 8y agoI had a tiler round on Monday. He quoted £200, I paid £200. Job done. The entire cost of his Labour was borne by me, yet I didn’t tip him. Is it a tax evasion scheme, and thus a tax subsidy for certain professions?
