    You’re more frustrated at people that don’t leave tips over the fact you are seen as less than a person by the owners that pay a pitiful wage. Look to the people that came before you, look up Mario Savio.

      The non-tippers are complicit, they patronize my job and give the owner their money, but don’t think I’m deserving of any either as evidenced by them not tipping. My boss doesn’t give a shit whether I’m tipped or not, and if I leave over it he’ll have my replacement within the hour and the system continues.

      Sure, be an ideologue all you want and “tipping is wrong!” So don’t come into my store. That’s the only way to make my boss feel it instead of me, if you come in, give him $20 and give me the finger for wasting time on you, yes, of course I’m mad at both of you.

        So if nobody went to your store because they don’t want to tip the restaurant would close and you’d be fired.

        You are being exploited by your boss. The people tipping you are subsidizing that exploitation. You want to be pissed, go be pissed at your boss or find another job.

        As another user mentioned plenty of wait staff are in favour of tipping so also because of that it doesn’t change

        And it’s a descriminative and unfair system. Theres plenty of data on it.

          Yeah, but if people go to the store and pay my boss his money but don’t tip, I’m homeless, lose my job because I can’t secure even a proper shower and people don’t like that when you handle their food, my old boss hires some 19yo kid to replace me, and the cycle continues. Great job, well done, fuck me and hooray continued exploitation I guess.

          OR STOP GIVING MY EXPLOITER MONEY, it really isn’t that hard, learn to cook for yourslelf, what’re you an incel that never learned how to take care of themselves? Youtube videos my guy, “how to make a pizza,” bam now you aren’t subsidizing my exploitation by paying my boss who exploits me.
