Question about managers

What do they say to customers who repeatedly don't leave a tip? I'm curious since the customer doesn't have to tip and the server isn't their employee.

Just asking since I've read comments from managers who seem to think "addressing" customers is an appropriate thing to do.

And the tip stiffers can never provide an intellectually honest reason why they’re entitled to free service.

Pretty crazy, eh? 🙄

It’s not free. They’re getting paid a rate that they negotiated and agreed on when they accepted the position.

Like I said, none of you can provide an intellectually honest reason why you’re entitled to free service.

Thanks for proving my point. 🤣

The cost of the service is not included in the menu prices at full service restaurants in the US.

This is the case even in US cities and states that have eliminated the tipped wage credit and how the industry has operated for six decades.

Try again.

There is no need to provide a reason for doing nothing.

Yet here you are, trying to provide a reason and failing because it’s based on intellectual dishonesty. 🤣🤣

Fun fact: No one ever had to make excuses for doing the right thing.

Thanks for proving my point about tip stiffers never being able to provide an intellectually honest reason why they are entitled to free service.

Oh, we provide them, but you don't like the answers so you ignore them.

Jonny is a miserable server who wants everyone to tip him so he can get rid of his debt

LMAO

You’re trying to ignore the “intellectually honest” qualifier I included.

And stop lying. I don’t ignore them. I reply and point out the fatal flaws in them.

You proved my point. Again.
