I've often wondered how legit those 'hand car washes' are. Legit or not, I'm sure it is hard work for crappy money.
- hobobaggins 3y agoThey're legit, and they make big tips when they work hard.
- jzb 3y agos/they work hard/somebody decides to tip which may or may not reflect any effort the worker put in because some people just don’t tip and depending on tips is a shitty way to scrape by/
- tashoecraft 3y agoI have worked as a tipped employee, and I have never heard a tipped employee say “wow that table/person didn’t tip much, I should have worked harder”
- hermitcrab 3y agoThe comment I was referring to was talking about the UK, where we don't have a tipping culture in the same way the US does. >They're legit It is hard to know whethr they are working legally.
- hobobaggins 3y agoOh, I thought you were talking about the establishments themselves, sorry!
- globular-toast 3y agoI can confirm they wash your car if you pay them to. Is that legit enough?
- hermitcrab 3y agoI was referring to the parent comment "The official narrative here is modern slavery with undocumented migrants". Some of the people working in these hand car washes may not have the legal right to work in the UK, which makes them ripe for exploitation.
