No, they were intended for non-white folks back in the day and were 100% considered long term. Tipping culture was a direct response of the 13th Amendment. Over time, especially when communities were racially exclusionary, that cheap labor came from the young instead of people of color.
"Retail and service jobs were never intended to be a long term career that you support your family with" only became the predominant thought AFTER young white college students started joint their ranks, which is fairly recent—post World War 2 with the Baby Boomer generation.
