I’ve been both a barista and a developer, and also I’ve been a waiter. I don’t tip, and I only get take out. It’s simply not worth it at all. (The service)
Why?
The waiter/barista actually controls very little and both so relatively little as well. One job I was using a largely automated $10,000 espresso machine, which you kinda-sorta gotta know how to pack the grounds for. But that only took me about 3 minutes to learn… literally.
As a waiter you just bring the plate to the table. At the fancy place I worked at, we had runners who would also bus the table and they actually did that for us. So… I would get a 20-30% tip for basically just making the table feel cool and rich for being there.
Like a food salesman.
I don’t really want to talk to a food or a car salesman myself, in all honesty. If I got paid more then yes, for sure. But I don’t.
Let’s watch society collapse under the weight of collective wage stagnation and greed!
