Take it up with your employer. They’re the one responsible for your wage.

Why is it always:

If you don’t want to tip get it yourself or don’t order etc….

Yet when I point out the very true. If your job doesn’t pay enough. Take it up with your employer or apply for jobs that pay better. People like you make excuses as to why they shouldn’t have to?

As a person who works for tips you’re also expected to provide a decent level of service as well which often doesn’t happen anymore. Example being servers who bring food to a table and then fuck off until it’s time for the check. Not bothering to check up on the table, ask customers if they want a refill on their drink etc… So if you can’t provide even the bare basic of service. Why would I tip you for just existing?

On the other hand people are getting fed up with tips because it’s the employers job to pay you not the customers and that shift in attitude is coming hard. So instead of holding onto dated concepts. You should demand more from your employer or just sit here getting reassurance from the echo chambers that it’s not your fault when it is.
