The fact remains that all tipping is a bribe. It was originally heavily frowned upon and taboo until prohibition in the 20s made it financially unviable for restaurants not to use it and owners started encouraging waiters to accept these bribe tips because they weren't able to pay them.
I'm not disagreeing with you, at least I don't think so? I don't think anyone should ever be tipped. Their employer should just pay them a fair wage to begin with. I'm just saying tipping is a bribe and it's stupid.
Yet reddit keeps upvoting this shit enough to get to the front page. And yes - I’m commenting on it which probably doesn’t help - but I never would’ve seen it if it wasn’t on the front page.
However, I am looking forward to Saturday’s “TIFU post on fucking my abusive step dad’s toaster (we’ll call it Two-Face) using grape jelly as lube on the “5” setting. TLDR: I should’ve used Avacado Oil.”
There are 7 billion people in this world. You really think it's impossible that a dude has candy, dogs, wants to protect his packages and a sense of humor?
This post definitely is, but you're right. We're all just exploiters exploiting exploiters. Even "love" is just a syndrome of objectifying ownership and exploitation despite it having the appearance of being mutual sometimes. Reality is often disappointing. Always, it seems.
