Worth noting that waitstaff would have a lower minimum wage than cashier or shelf-stocker, with expectation that they make it up in tips, so it's not just social norm.
- pkaye 5y agoNot all states have a lower tipped wages though. Also should fast food workers get tipped?
- uoaei 5y agoLove this question because it puts the issue in very stark relief. No, fast food workers shouldn't be tipped. No one "should" be tipped. If people are paid a living wage then scrabbling for tips becomes obsolete and tipping leaves the realm of "should" and progresses closer to its Platonic ideal of being a purely voluntary act used to express exceptional appreciation for a job well done.
