I hate how tipping is now customary at every single restaurant now, including places without servers.
Just wait until you visit a restaurant that automatically adds 18% gratuity then also expects you to tip on to of that.
Been there, won't return.
Even a large party... We brought you business, so you lower your service standards?
Fuck that. Pay your staff.
Also, it's uh, racist. https://archive.is/20230906072713/https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/05/opinion/minimum-wage-racism.html
Oh you sweet summer child. I'm not talking about the "large group" gratuity (which is also bullshit)... I'm talking about restaurants that are now adding an 18% gratuity for every bill - even if you just came in to have a drink.
Sounds like a good reason to pay the bill with the CC and dispute it as fraud after the fact. Chargebacks hurt businesses.
