I fully agree. It's going to be a while before tipping goes away, but it's being recognized more and more as a problem. Restaurants that get rid of it are usually seen positively. There's a successful brewery in Seattle that has a no-tipping policy. The beers are about a $1 more than elsewhere, so you pay the same. The employees are also paid more in regular wages to make up for this. Everybody wins: The employees make about the same except with more stability, and there is no awkwardness. Tipping in restaurants is really problematic especially due to issues with tipping out the back.

> The employees make about the same except with more stability, and there is no awkwardness. This is my biggest gripe with tipping. It's just a crappy experience as a consumer, and a weird power dynamic for the employee. Promotes class divisions, and makes me feel kind of crappy. I just want everyone to get a fair deal and thats it...
