Tipping is actually worse for EVERYONE, especially restaurant waiters and those who depend on it. Tipping culture in America is getting out of control. If you haven't noticed, more and more stores are requesting tips at the end of a sale, including at SELF-CHECK OUT machines.

Its always just establishment owners pitting their employees against customers in a war to harrang and harass you for cash they won't pay. I stop going to places with electronic tipping for stuff that isn't service, because they're clearly disgustingly fat to the point of insanity on other people money and don't need me.

@sctpoch 8 месяцев назад

He hits the nail on the head when he says that tips have zero correlation to the quality of the service or how hard the employee in question works. If that was actually the case then the guy in the dish pit would be going home with $1000 in cash every night, because in every restaurant I've ever worked in, without exception, the hardest working employee was always the dishwasher. Not a chef, not a server, certainly not a bartender, although most of them do grind hard; always the guy who's bussing tables and washing dishes and staying late after the end of service to unload the purveyors' trucks and stock the pantry and walk-in. Anyway, the biggest thing I don't like about tipping is because it is not nor should it be my responsibility to pay the wages of someone else's employees.

@shoopoop21 8 месяцев назад

Its almost like tipping began as them passing the buck to employees, which they were willing to take, due to circumstances, but then in they passed it over to you. If anyone in any establishment ever gives me shit for not tipping, I immediately become Bill Murray obnoxious and cause a scene, and they totally deserve it. In no world is it okay for employees to beg me like panhandlers just because food was involved.

@Jon_Nadeau_ 8 месяцев назад

Thats the real problem with tipping today that the video did not touch on. It's not the tipping percentage thats pissing people off. It's being asked to tip on things that you shouldn't be tipping for. For example tipping at a self checkout cashier as a drugstore? Why should I tip a machine? Or tipping when you order takeout and pickup the food yourself. I'm an uber eats driver but as a customer I'm not tipping someone to ring up the transaction at the counter. If your not waiting on me or delivering the food to my house then tipping shouldn't be required. In Boston there are bars that have people standing by the sinks asking for tips just to hand me a paper towel. Like seriously I'm not tipping to have someone hand me a paper towel. The services in these industries have been declining for years but tipping has been increasing.

After living in other countries I seen how backwards tipping was. It invites so many taboo superstitious perspective of, “what affects my tip” vs a company just providing good service. Don’t forget the service industry going against tipping isn’t likely because it’s an agreement between the employer and employee to exploit the consumer. Some places require reporting tips but cash tips aren’t always losing the taxable income a serve has aka they keep more.

@jeremyandrews3292 8 месяцев назад

I am willing to tip in restaurants where food is brought to my table, but I draw the line at being asked to tip at a self-service checkout or any restaurant where I have to go up to the counter and get my own food. Tipping is not supposed to apply to people who make the food, those people earn minimum wage. It's supposed to be for waiters and such. I think they rolled out a lot of new digital systems during the pandemic when people were tipping service people for bringing food out to their car, and somehow the expectation to keep doing it even though things are somewhat back to normal has "stuck," even though it now makes no sense because we are going up to the counter in person and getting our food.

@Jon_Nadeau_ 8 месяцев назад

Agreed! thats the problem right there. Being expected to tip on things that we typically wouldn't tip on. Now self checkouts are asking us to tip? Like really I'm not tipping a machine.

@gordongekko2781 4 месяца назад

I take issue with the fact that tip percentages keep growing over time. Inflation is already baked into the price of the meal, therefore tips go up proportionately if the percentage remains the same. By increasing the expected tip percentage, it means servers are now paid twice as much as they used to even after adjusting for inflation. And, it is the reason why servers can make hundreds of dollars a week even if they only work part-time. I've never bought into the sob story for the waiting industry given that wait staff often make 2-3x per hour what their minimum wage counterparts make. I'm not suggesting that these people are rich, but objectively speaking they are doing much better than other workers of similar education/skill levels.

@ddc2343d 4 месяца назад

I'm one of those who has a negative impression of tipping, even though I worked in college as a server. I've entirely stopped tipping outside of traditionally tipped jobs. If they ask for a tip before I receive something, a sandwich, coffee, etc..the tip is zero. I'm so over the guilt portion of it. The other thing that changed is tipping on delivery. Initially, I tipped based on the price of the food. Then I realized that I was tipping more for Sushi than a burger even though both stores were next to each other. The service being provided is delivery and has nothing to do with the cost of the food. Now, I tip based on distance. I start a tip out at $3 for delivery and tip .5 per mile. If something is 4 miles away, they would get a $5 tip regardless of the cost of the food.

When I visited Europe, there was not even a line on the receipt to add a tip when using a credit card. I thought that was great! It infuriates me that US restaurants have their easy select tip options and often the smallest percent is 18 or even 20%. NO I refuse 10% is good service 15% is great service which barely exists and the overall bill matters meaning this will swing widely based on time and effort. If I buy a $1000 bottle of wine and that's it, baring the server performed a magic show for me expect $20. If I order a $5 beer and that's it but take your table expect about a $5 tip.

Servers are actually entirely unnecessary labour. You can easily remove them and still have well functioning restaurants. The cook makes the food and you pick up your food.

Being asked to tip above the price of goods for the pleasure of engaging in commerce is weird to me.

Giving tip is wrong, unless you are at the receiving side😅

My first job as a groundskeeper in 1987... I got paid $3.35 an hour which was the minimum wage at the time. Even with the cost of livin what it was back then... I seriously doubt I coulda made it on my own.

My family are big tippers because we feel guilty. But how do we fix this while not punishing service workers? Also, people's habits changed due to lockdowns. My family order take out and rarely sit down in restaurants. But we still tip 20%.

You shouldn't have to tip for take out unless they are delivering the order to your house. At most tip a couple of bucks.

@CrAzYnAdEz I order and pay online. I drive and go inside to pick up my food. The problem is that when I pay online, the options are 20, 22, 25% or nothing.

@Jon_Nadeau_ 8 месяцев назад

@@foodlover8151 Oh really! I usually pay inside when I pick it up. I usually write $1 tip on the receipt. Personally I don't think even a $1 tip is justified but I don't like to cross it out in front of the cashier. lol I guess you can always put no tip online and just give em a dollar in cash in person or just pay in person instead of online. Even putting 0 tip should be fine if you order online because 0humans are providing you a personal service if you do it online.

it is because of tip credit not other things. owner can reduce a lot of tax using tip credit. :)

@mitchell.9632 8 месяцев назад

That is good you show that eighty-four percent of employer do not make up the difference to the standard minimum wage at the end of a work day. Does McDonald's had a corporate policy against tipping or is that decided at the franchise level? Not sure why that was used as an example. Have not seen tips there. Another though is those who are on commission who are not employees such as "drive-share" companies and other types.

Tipping is anti democratic and should be unlawful. Prices for products and services should be the same for any customer.

I’m a tipper, but I’m sorry I’m not tipping at the ice cream shop😂 because you scooped the ice cream and handed it to me?

@yaughl 27 дней назад

Tipping in general is just asinine and needs to go. A tip prompt just exposes an employer as a scumbag who financially abuses their staff. How are they not embarrassed? More importantly, why does everyone support this? #endtipping

As an Uber driver there is not doubt, the working poor are ALWAYS more generous than the wealthier clients. This goes against the hypothesis of this video.

What do you mean the wealthy can afford to tip more? They don’t tip at all. 😒 It’s the middle and lower class that keep this engine going. In a consumer economy, middle and lower class the drivers that keep it going, while the wealthy are job creators. However, if you really want to know why this is getting out of hand, work in a casino. Tipped positions there (depending on department), can make $50k/year. Most of these workers are living cash in hand lifestyles. The pandemic had many of these departments freaking out, because unemployment wouldn’t be enough to replace their tips, (before we knew about the stimulus money). They actually would have to save money for once.

Jesus Christ, bring these workers wages in line with minimum wage, go after the businesses and charge a minimum fine of $1,000,000 for being non-compliant of labor laws and if they don’t pay or have multiple violations, shut down their business and arrest the owners.

Treat wage theft like theft. Throw the owners in prison.
