When a business has to shame customers into tipping or require mandatory tips, maybe they should not be in business? Perhaps that’s a little extreme, here’s a better one: raise the prices. Pay your employees a fair wage and stop whining that you can’t afford it, because you can afford it, and if you can’t, then perhaps your business model is not sustainable.
- missedthecue 5y agodoesn't sound like they shamed. Sounds like they increased the price of a meal by 20%.
- Brian_K_White 5y agoOf course they shamed. There is no other way to describe it. If they wanted to pay their employees more, they can simply do so. If they want to charge the customers more to pay for the employees, they can simply do so. There is no legitimate explicable purpose to packaging up this action in this very peculiar way. I am just trying to imagine this is any other context. Just imagine my employers invoice for my programming or sysadmin time itemized as "$110 with an involuntary 20% tip because our analysts are worth more than plumbers"
