I also don't tip
Because I don't go to restaurants with servers
I vote with my wallet that the whole concept is stupid, I hate paying 20% for someone to be fake nice and move food 10 feet
This is the way. By going but not tipping you're just fucking over the server, not the business. To hurt the business' bottom line you have to not go. Or dine and dash, but that then fucks the server harder while also affecting the business.
That why they said they don't go to restaurants with servers. Either go to a restaurant where you buy food at a counter and bus yourself, or go to a tipless resturant with servers. Obviously don't just screw over the server.
Though, on a large scale, if everyone just stopped tipping all at once, nobody would be willing to work for server wages anymore, and restaurants would have to increase pay or get fucked. Too bad our economy is based on fighting for survival, and not the profit motive, because the reality is that it would just fuck people's lives up really bad.
And I was agreeing, thus starting the comment with "that is the way," which I'm assuming you missed.
And sure, and I'm assuming you mean more than $7.25, but there'd be a lot of missed rent and power bills along the way until they catch up.
What about dine and dash, while leaving a cash tip?
There's a good chance the restaurant will take it all since they were "owed".
9/10 chance that goes to cover part of your bill and the waiter gets fucked, but if you could guarantee they pocket it that'd work.
Hmm, maybe slip it to them when asking for the bill?
That’ll get them fired for looking like they conspired with you
Sure, that might work, or give it to them up front (protip btw, you want GREAT service? Frontload that tip, your server will break the law for you if you do that lol).
It's not exactly legal, but a lot of places will charge the server for a done and dash.
Hmm, what about fake checks? Surely there's an angle here where the server isn't punished, I don't go to jail, and the restaurant takes a hit.
They should be replaced with automated mechanical food shuttles. I would tip those.
Why would you tip those?
How else do you plan to knock them over?
he tips his fedora
How would you know that, they didn't say what their income is. They said they were voting with their wallet, not that they couldn't afford to do it.
I'd pay people to fuck off and not talk to me.
I see "personal service" as an annoyance.
Not me who goes around assuming everybody's poor, mate.
