tipping in my opinion is rather rude.
as a bussiness, you are basically asking for a handout to make the lives of your waiting staff bearable. In my opinion this mean you should not run a business.
Why would i tip someone when they do their job? Should we do this for all jobs? (the same goes for the military in my opinion).

- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoI am (or was) fundamentally against tipping, and I agree that people should simply get paid to do their job. However, I've followed the debates occuring in the USA as a handful of restaurants have experimented with no-tip policies, and I am now really ambivalent about the practice. Several restaurants with owners who sounded very committed to end tipping have returned to it; I've read remarks from many waitstaff who say that they prefer and can make far more that way than they would ever be paid on a salary. I don't think there's a clear answer. My gut still tells me that it's a bad idea, but I do not want to ignore stories from those actually working in and around businesses where this is a thing.
- greyface- 3y agoOne frequent criticism of tipping is that its rewards are distributed unevenly among workers, based on traits such as gender and physical appearance. When reading remarks from tipped workers, have you noticed any correlations with these traits?
- PaulDavisThe1st 3y agoI don't think the remarks have come with enough context to meaningfully comment on that. Having said that, I strongly suspect you're correct about that, though I'd also guess that personality traits are also a very important component, and those are also not handed out "fairly".
