Why does everyone assume tipping only exists in the US? Because it still exists over here in the UK, and quite a few other parts of the world, and the people we give these tips too aren't making less than mininum wage (with tips apparently making up the difference).
Honestly, as long as the wages before tips are fair, then there's nothing wrong with tipping as a concept.

- CM30 7y agoI wouldn't mind it personally, so long as it was something the employee could get without managers intefering/taking the money or it being mandatorily added to the end of the bill as a service charge. And it obviously shouldn't be necessarily to make up for a wage that the employee couldn't otherwise live on. But there's nothing wrong with the idea of tipping per se, and if customers want to reward employees for good customer service/work, then they should be able to.
