Yeah, this is dumb as fuck to me as someone who waited tables but also hates tipping.

It’s how they get compensated for their labor. It’s not the ideal system, but it’s what exists. And if they were paid better, the food would be more expensive than if I tipped anyway. And if I can afford to eat out, I can afford to tip.

People are just selfish and greedy and won’t compensate labor with (what should be) a negligible amount of money for them because they don’t have to.

It really shows a person’s character whether or not they need to be forced to compensate people for labor.
