    So, dear reader, notice how whenever defenders of tipping come along, it’s always the same story.

    Oh boohoo my poor minimum wage (which is pegged to the same minimum wage as non-tipped workers in states where most people live).

    Ever wonder why it’s always about the minimum wage and never about how much money they make?

    Any server with 2 brain cells clears $40 an hour in untaxed cash wages every shift.

    They never report it on their taxes, and yet they will cry about their poor wittle wage at every opportunity expecting people that make half their salary to tip them 100% for rudely dropping off a plate once and never coming back, making you wait 20 minutes to close a check.

    Notice the pattern. Remember how I was right next time.

    Ask them if they’d rather abolish tipping next time. Notice how none of them say “yes”.

      I’m 100% on board with ending tipping, i am just saying that stiffing your server won’t do anything to end it.

        It will when servers refuse to work those jobs

          I’m excited for the nation wide free public housing you’re referencing. When will it be complete?
