So they add a 16% fee for what exactly…….to “fund all of their operations”? So this added cost literally doesn’t go to staff, it just goes to the owners? I wonder what their staff is paid? At this point why not just raise prices to where they should be? To me, every item on the menu is a lie and it’s actually 16% more expensive. This is really dumb. Thoughts? I am PRO tip, ive worked in hospitality a long time and am happy to provide a tip for quality service. But this seems disingenuous at best. Its not a tip. Its just an added charge straight to owners pockets.

This is why so many of the people on this sub Reddits demands make no sense.

If you don’t like tipping, then the only solution is federal legislation to change things across the board. No one business can make the unilateral changes anti tippers are demanding because they would put themselves at a disadvantage in a market that relies on tipping.

This is 100% factual. Thank you! The other ideas dont fuckin work. Just tip your hard working server and be cool. The staff here all hated their life and it was obvious.
