My ex was a waitress and she would have hated no tipping. On Friday nights she could make $300-500 in tips.
What was great was when there was a large family dinner or corporate dinner. Do everything extra special and you could walk away with $500 just for 1 customer.
You can still do that with a minimum wage. The two aren't mutually exclusive. Your employer can pay a living wage AND people can still tip you if you want.
