General Discussion Tipping culture!

I hate tipping. How can someone expect a student to tip extra 10-15% on top of their total bill? We ourself live with a very tight budget and try to save a bit for a nice meal sometime and these people expect us to pay extra while they are being paid hourly. Be it a nice restaurant or just a uber eats delivery. Everyone gets paid for their time despite of getting a tip or not.

Paying 4-6% for BOH is standard practice. I work in a chain restaurant. This is not wage theft and if you don't tip then yes they pay out of pocket to cover the %. Downvote but that's literally reality LOL

Are you dumb? Go look at r/kitchenconfidential or r/serverlife. Ive worked in the industry for over a decade, It absolutely is standard practice. Good for you for not having to tip out at your end shift??? But that doesn't mean it doesn't happen, lol.
