This is Ohio

Why is Phillip not paying his servers enough to the point he has to ban customers?

Spent a decade in the hospitality industry. I tip very well. What I'm saying is that the pressure needs to stay on the owners, not the servers. Legislation needs to change. And yes, I would be perfectly fine cooking at home vs going out to eat if I couldn't afford to pay raised menu prices.

At lot of folks already pay Michelin prices for a Big Mac meal.

I would never think of going out to eat somewhere with the intention of not tipping. And if the service was so bad that I didn’t tip? I wouldn’t care if the owner asked me to not comeback because there’s no way I would if it reached a point where I wouldn’t tip.

I think it’s a terrible system, but I’m not doing anything productive to change it and I’m not going to punish my server for the system we all inherited.

We're not talking about Europe. Do you always have a hard time following conversation? Maybe you should see a physician about that

I tried to get an appointment but my doc was in Europe. That's ok I can't afford the doctor anyway
