You had me until this point. No, this is some people’s belief, but not all. I certainly don’t think people are underpaid when I tip, it’s entirely based off service.
- cptskippy 4y agoIt's unfortunate that you're willing to dismiss everything I said because of a generalization that spoke in absolutes. There will always be people who disagree, but if you're in the United States and believe that service workers are not underpaid then you either only patronize high end restaurants or are completely out of touch with the average American.
- tekknik 4y agoAnd yet you dismiss what I said and gave an option as to why it’s acceptable. If you believe that a majority of food workers are underpaid, then I, as well as market research, disagree with you.
- cptskippy 4y agoI didn't dismiss you and you didn't present any reason why it's acceptable. You simply stated that it was. > ...then I, as well as market research... Any what market research is that?
- tekknik 4y agoIf you spend any, and I mean any, amount of time researching tipping you’ll find the market research. It’s proof you’ve done no research yourself just spouting personal beliefs as if everybody feels the same (this day and age of all).
