You keep moving the goalposts. Now fine-dining? People here can tip too, it's just that companies are required to give them a basic standard. At a fine dining restaurant they'd be earning more than minimum wage generally.
- kasey_junk 6y agoService workers are required to receive a basic standard in the US as well, it’s just that tips are counted towards the minimum wage. The reason fine dining is interesting is that’s where the no tipping movement is most prevalent in the US. Also note that fine dining serving staff is generally pro the current status quo because they believe they make more money under the current arrangement than they would under the alternative.
