It’s really sad to see how good the propaganda has worked on these people. All the blame is shifted to each other instead of the elite asshole whose responsibility it actually is to make sure you get paid.

I’d just think that it’s a good thing I learned to cook.

The problem really is not the 40% tip, or 20%. It’s that the prices are high enough, they should cover generous salaries and wages for staff. If a burger costs $25, asking for a penny more in gratuity is insane. Make the burger $7 and then let’s look at a tip.

“What a sad and poor country”.

People should get a decent salary when they’re hired to do a job, not hope for customer’s tips to earn their living.

I would also be tempted to say that a poster that openly hostile to customers may not be the wisest choice to help them learn… anything.

first thought: tipping culture in the US is fucking stupid, I should not be subsidizing your employees wages simply because you can not be bothered to pay them properly yourself

second thought: despite being stupid, I still tip because they still deserve a living wage, however I usually tip 15%. Maybe 20-25% if they did an exceptional job. 40%? 40% is fucking insane. That server is either giving me a table-side blowjob, or they’re fantasizing, because I have not yet seen nor can I properly imagine service good enough to earn double what I normally tip for great service. What does that even look like? I think the server would have to start bringing things I want before I even have the chance to ask for them, and at that point, why are you waiting tables if you can read minds?

And if it’s just that they instead expect double the money for the same amount of effort, haha, fuck off, ask your employer for a raise not me.

40%? Delusional, especially with that attitude.

tips are only in the US because employers refused to pay newly freed slaves.

I regularly tip around 30%, often above it, and I consider myself a pretty generous tipper. It’s absurd to act like 40% is standard.

Sometimes receipts will show suggested tip amounts and those are usually 18%, 20%, and 22% or something like that. Maybe 25%.

They’re not paying their employees in restaurants? Wtf.

I mean I know but that’s my thought. #usproblems

I find the sign condescending, shaming, and presumptuous (40%). If I owned the place that’s not how I’d want it represented when people come in.

Restaurants are already expensive before factoring in tips. If the place gets a reputation that our staff are accustomed to 40% gratuity the business may struggle.

The US restaurant system is broken. Pressuring the customers you rely on, who face the same economic hardships as you, is not going to fix it.

To turn around and leave. If they don’t pay the servers enough that my bill is supposed to be their entire wages, I don’t want to find out what kind of food is served. Cost- cutting doesn’t happen in only one place when the boss starts penny pinching. Also, I don’t want to support a business that isn’t taking care of its workers if I can help it, and I’d rather go elsewhere.

Also the sheer amount of that example bill worries me, cause I don’t get paid enough to be spending $90 on a meal unless it’s at least 4 people being fed. I can cook for alot cheaper at home, and still have it be celebrating.

My first thought is that you picked the wrong community to post this in and it should be deleted. My second thought is that 40% is implausible. My third thought is that even if someone was dumb enough to think it was a good idea, anyone doing that irl would quickly be told to knock it off.

I’m tipping that lady an Australian penny for her attitude.

First thought: How did I end up in an AI-generated bullshit pic designed to inspire anger against hard-working service employees of restaurants?

Second thought: Fuck aaaaaaaall the way off with this intentionally divisive garbage.

mhm ragebait :>
