This was at a self-service kiosk, too, right?
If you can't afford living wages for your staff so they're not dependant on tips, your store shouldn't be open.
Everyone working a job should be making a living wage. "Oh, but then the price of my McDonald's cheeseburger will skyrocket!!" Fucking good. If it's not economical to produce a product without abusing people, that product shouldn't exist. Period. I will die on this hill.
"Oh, but then the price of my McDonald's cheeseburger will skyrocket!!" Fucking good
I don't know why people keep repeating this propaganda. Plenty of countries pay actual wages to their employees, don't have tipping, and the prices are still fucking cheaper than America.
Apologies, I'm not trying to say that that argument is true or has any basis in reality, more so that the argument is completely irrelevant
Hamburgling used to be a decent profession. Now with such cheap burgers all those skilled workers are left out.
If any place said a 30% tip is so so, I'm not tipping.
If I saw this I would give them exactly what I think they're worth. $0.01 and a bad online review.
Nice precedent for corruption
10-15% IF you went above and beyond or performed particularly well. It's a tip, I am not your employer. I used to be a huge tipper until I realized just how fucked that whole system is. Also, NEVER PRE-TIP. That is insane!
What's pre-tipping? A tip before you've even had service?
Its what you have to do these days if you want your uber to show up in a reasonable amount of time.
Pre-tipping is how rub and tug's work. For real.
I don't think 10-15% has been considered a reasonable tip for "above and beyond" since the 80s. Most will take that as an insult worse than not tipping, funnily enough.
As for pre-tips, they (intentionally?) design the checkout process such that if there's a pre-tip, there is no post-tip. It's basically a "don't spit in my burger" fee.
Pre-tip? I think that's called a bribe

Avoid joints that's "require" tipping.
Deny the parasite profit.
Maybe the restaurants should pay their employees so customers don't have to pay them? I know it's a radical thought.
I hate to break this to you, but the customer pays in all scenarios.
But, yes, the employer should pay a living wage and include their overhead costs into the price of the goods.
Especially because a lot of people in this thread seem to protest the tipping system by just not tipping. That only hurts the worker, y’all. It isn’t gonna change the system.
