This is all business everywhere (other than the trillions of dollars exchanged in corrupt government contracts).
- JohnFen 3y agoBut most businesses are honest about how they go about it. Abusing tipping like this is the opposite of that. Not to mention it puts customers and employees into an adversarial relationship, and manages to be an insult to both the employees and the customers. Just be honest, pay the workers what they should be paid, and price the goods and services accordingly.

HELL YES I would much, much rather pay more and know the staff were getting real wages. This is complicated by the fact that a large number of FOH workers prefer the $2 hourly plus tips because they don't disclose most of the tips on their taxes.
