It's not that it's unreal to remove tipping. It's that there is no big incentive to do so. If anything, there is pretty big incentive to keep it. Restaurants like it as it allows them to appear cheaper by offloading the visible cost into the tip. Many servers like it as cash tips are frequently used as untaxed income.
- dopidopHN 4y agoLack of incentives. I would take it. It seems like a common theme here. In regards to worker liking the untaxed incomes: I live in a US city that rely on tourism and thus the service industry. I had countless conversation with industry worker about this and it seems like a chicken and egg problem. They need it because the base pay is shit, but they also hate the irregularity of it. ( triple pay in season, not worth to work outside of it ) They also would take more stability in order to raise family. Most stop to find « a real job » when they reach their 40 or so.
