Americans should raise service worker’s wages to a decent living salary.
- j7ake 2y agoIt’s California, they’re paid a minimum wage of 16 dollars per hour before any tips.

- jandrewrogers 2y agoMany of these workers are paid a fair wage. Minimum wage in Seattle is $40k, higher than the median wage in many European countries. With tips they might double that. The biggest beneficiaries and proponents of tipping are the workers themselves, empirically their net wages decline when tipping is not allowed even when wages are increased to offset that.
