Tipping At A Restaurant

[Duwop]

Doesn't matter if they are doing it for 11 days or 11 hours, noone (the public) does not bat an eye if tipping isn't being done in casinos is my point.

If a person wins, they can get they ass up from the table and run off with the winnings and not leave nothing and nobody says nothing, but if that same person eats at a restaurant, and he gets up and leaves after paying the bill, he's cheap and broke

Be consistent is all I ask or don't judge at all

oh you still getting judged at a casino

 

[Knock_Twice]

So when you remove tipping from the equation by paying them a fair wage, suddenly the waitstaff don't want to see you anymore???

Anyone else other than me see how ridiculously stupid this is???

Expecting a tip from a stranger for doing your job is some greed, but we are supposed to overlook that owner for not wanting to pay their workers livable wages according to Black rain and Du lol smh

 

[BlackRain]

It has everything to do with it. It's no "protest" just like I stated, most folks only frown down on folks who don't tip waiters at bars/resturants

Noone bats an eye when the tipping isn't done in other sectors, such as in a casino and other avenues of life.

As an adult, you should sign yourself up to work for someone who is paying you a livable wage.

You can't say "noone" because there's folks that have no issue tipping anywhere that calls for it. And a person taking a job below minimum wage actually gives more credence to the fact that the supposed goal of proving a point by not tipping doesn't hit the intended target. People are free to not tip. But the mental gymnastics to justify it doesn't make sense because the owner already gets their money the moment you pay for the food/drinks.

 

[Duwop]

casino workers are just instructed to not have conversations with gamblers. but they get pissed and judge you when you don't tip them as well....don't get it twisted

and you keep missing the fact that if we pay them that wage and eliminate tips they're ultimately making less money.

Nah Du

I never judged anybody from winning 20 dollars playing the field and walking away from the crap table or blackjack table without tipping the dealer or the shooter

Niggas don't even tip the shooter who hit point (I do) for them to win the money, nigga rolled a 4, bet big on the 4, won, rack his shit in and walk clean on out the building with no fucks or thanks given to the shooter who hit his point
Niggas don't even tip the house

 

[Duwop]

"This one table didn't tip me, so imma just go to mcdonalds where they pay a livable wage and i make the same amount every pay"

"well we gotta 300 person wedding party coming in friday, last time we had one with like 100 people and everyone got like an extra $100 on top of their tips for the night.... but yea... good luck at mcdonalds....can't beat that consistent pay check"

Nope never said that. Don't make shit up. But you are actually overlooking the owner by taking your dislike out on the sever and not the owner. You'd be better off just not going out to eat at all if the wages are your issue. Because by being a patron at the place you're putting money in the pockets of the person you claim is being overlooked.

again, dealers can't have conversations with the gamblers....but they still think folks who don't tip after a win ain't shit

Don't know about all that but I do foresee the menu prices increasing to offset that labor increase

You're saying the owners should not pay their workers a livable wage. Got it.

You're not dumb, you not working for nobody that's not paying a livable wage. Let's keep it simple.

We not talking about how the owner gets paid, we moving the goal post a little. That's not the discussion. Keep it here, we are talking bout working for someone who is paying a livable wage.

We are talking about owners paying their workers a livable wage. Nobody cares how much the owners make.

 

[BlackRain]

It may be less but it's easier to budget and plan your life on a consistent salary as opposed to one that is subject to the whim of multiple people per day. Some may take the latter option

more money than they would make even if their wages were higher..

a well tipped server at a restaurant is making way more than a minimum wage server at a place that does not tip at all

At the bold. No. You're still making shit up that was never said or even implied by me. I'm not making the same argument as Du.

and that's their right..... and completely understandable...

but the upside is higher.....you're way more likely to have some dude slide you $100 for a steak than slide you $100 for a big mac

We not exactly in the gamble with your salary type of economy/world for the majority of people. It's a risk that most would avoid if they could

Again, you shifting the narrative, or trying to.

The owner pays the worker, Not me.

Using your logic, I shouldn't shop at Wal-Mart, Target, etc. We all should be tipping the cashier?

Those workers chose to work at those places, Wal-Mart, Target, they are getting the minimum wage. "They are not greedy"

Waiters, are expecting to be paid by the customer instead of the person that they are working for. That's not how life works killa.

If we took you and DU's logic, everybody that's working should expect a tip for their service, but they don't because they have chosen jobs that pays them a livable wage

and again you're neglecting alllllllllllllll the intricacies of running a restaurant.....

if a server is brining in 100's a night from their tips...you still mad at their wage? if they are under a no tip model, they are not bringing in 100's a night...they have the wage... but they not walking out there with cash every night. and at that point it's a choice..do you want to be tipped daily,. or you want the same check every 2 weeks....

 

[konceptjones]

how is it stupid? who doesn't want incentives? the fair wage is less than they make from tips??

who wants less money??

The average tipped employee in this state makes between $17 and $19 per hour.
If you were to pay them that hourly, or even $20/hr, how does that equate to less money???

The average tipped employee in Maryland makes between $15.36 on the low end and $20/hr if they're killin' it.
Again... If you pay them that as their hourly rate, how does that equate to less money???

It doesn't. What it does is moves their earnings back to where it's supposed to be: Paid by their employer, not the consumers.

I think you're just chiming in to be chiming in. You're fussing with yourself at this point.

Owners of any establishment should pay their workers a living wage instead of relying on the public to do it. That's the meat of the discussion.
