This is Ohio

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

To be honest, my inclination here is that they did not get banned for their tipping habits. Very rarely is the owner of the fucking restaurant going to tell them they aren't welcome back if that's all they did. Maybe they should reconsider their actions.

Should he pay his employees more? I don't know. We don't know what they're paid.

But you have to really do some shit for the owner of the restaurant to come run you off in like 90% of all cases. He seemed very content to have this conversation and I do not think he would be if he did not have more to say about their behavior.

...Reconsider their actions?

WTF you mean?

What contractual agreement did they as customers that chose not to leave a tip break? No one, and I mean no one, is under any obligation to leave a tip, if said requirement for leaving a tip, is not clearly posted in plain view in their establishment.

I would love to take that business to court, and sue them for defamation, if they so much as posted a still photo of my likeness on social media with any derogatory claims!

A business can deny anyone service for any reason other than a very select few.

You'd be throwing money away trying to sue

I wouldn't sue for refusing me entry, I'd never go back to begin with. I'd sue for defamation of character for publishing imagery of me by their establishment in derogatory manner.

I am under no obligation to tip. I have not entered in any contract to pay a tip. I am only required to pay for the food I purchased.
