  • If tipping ended and restaurants paid their servers, food prices would go up. That is undeniable.

    You are eating at a discount with the expectation that you will pay the owner’s employee for them. Yes, it is unfair and sucks but the one making out like a bandit here is the owner.

    So, not tipping is your way of benefiting personally on a discounted meal AND STILL giving the owner money. And the only one you have punished in your equation is a server (the leech???) who is generally living off that tip day to day.

    So if you want to make an impact, quit going to restaurants that have tipping as an expectation! That’s it! Otherwise you are just encouraging the owner to keep the status quo!


  • Here’s the equation. Restaurants keep food costs low by paying servers next to nothing. If they paid them what they deserve, the cost of your meal would increase.

    So by not tipping, you are benefiting from the low cost of food while screwing over the person that has no control over the situation. YTA

    If you don’t want to tip, don’t go to a restaurant that has servers.

    Now, other places that actually pay a living wage and also have a tip button (ie concession stands at a sporting event) can get fucked.















  • “No one works harder than hungry people”

    While this is probably true, the problem is that their reward for this hard work in no way comes close to fixing their hunger problem.

    Meanwhile the assholes in control of the economy and responsible for their hunger problem are taking all the rewards and hoarding it for no better reasons than to compare with other assholes.
