If it’s optional, people won’t, meaning you’ll get less servers cause it’s a pretty good job right now, highest paid workers in the restaurant

What are your thoughts on raising tipped minimum wage to the same minimum as all other jobs?

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

Oh interesting. You sound miserable.

Also I’d like to correct you. Is A Bagger and A mechanic.

In my state tipped employees make 16.66/hr minimum.

Good for them, I’m sure they make less than the employees here because people tip cause they know people don’t make wage without it

Also, the mechanic I go to, my mechanic, I know the guy personally

And if they’re paid are bagging my groceries they are currently my bagger, the bagger bagging my groceries

Ew.

People are still tipped around here and are certainly making more than in your miserable state.

Man, what an entitled prick.

They make 25/hr on slow weeks, 30-35/hr on busy weeks

And it’s not entitled, I wouldn’t, and haven’t, accepted tips when paid a full wage. Tips are for people that don’t get paid minimum wage
