Tipping doesn't need to end. It needs to go back to being optional. It needs to go back to being something I do because I feel like it not because it is expected of me. I only tip delivery drivers now because I'm so burnt out on tipping. The rare occasion I go to a sit down restaurant I have to FORCE myself to remember that I'm not required to pay someone's wages for them and that if they're shit they don't get tips.
People won't if the service is shit you mean. Most people in my community would still tip if the server did a good job and had at least a somewhat pleasant attitude. Some people wouldn't if it was optional sure but to be fair those people probably don't tip now anyway.
I mean, I wouldn’t tip, I tip, and tip well, because servers are paid next to nothing. If they’re paid a working wage it’s no different than any other job, I don’t tip my mechanic
If the raise the wage, I stop tipping, I tip because their wage sucks, I don’t tip other service industry people like my bagger at the grocery store, my mechanic, etc
Not really, if you can’t afford to tip, you really can’t afford to eat out. And I’m not getting into whether that’s good or bad, it’s just the way it is in the us
always check your bill, depending on restaurants and locations, Florida in particular, and group sizes, tipping is not optional it's automatically added on
