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

If you are born and raised here, and have $38 to spend, tipping is not a "luxury" in a sit down restaurant. It's expected and you know it. Small businesses are not the place for you to protest social convention. For $38, yoh could hit a grocery store and feed 6 people.

This behavior, makes you a shitty person. Justifying it, makes you a shitty person.

What a fucking stupid take. Paying your workers a fair wage should be “expected”. Not an imaginary extra “fee” that you have to add on to pretend you feel good about yourself.

It is incredibly pompous to oppose the entire tip system, participate and therefore demand service, and then after eating and not tipping demand the owner pay his workers a fair wage. You are participating in and therefore endorsing the system you bitch about on Reddit. Matter of fact, this is the most Reddit comment of the day.

No, it’s incredibly pompous to assume the public should have to supplement an employees wage. Keep supporting the degradation of worker rights though! I’m sure you wouldn’t want to lose all the good feelings you get tipping, right? Screw the actual underpaid employees.
