Waitress got in my face after not tipping (due to cold food, long wait time, and slow refills). Called the restaurant when I got home and yelled at some poor soul but I didn’t feel much better. I’m not against tipping and I will give 10% for a good job even though it’s not in my culture to tip. TC 430k - 13 YoE
I don’t even believe this post. Smells like clickbait. I don’t even believe this thing about “not my culture to tip.” People don’t tip in Europe but most every international co-worker I ever had follows the local custom. Sounds like garbage just meant to rile people up, as if there’s not enough of that in the world already.
Ban tipping and force restaurant owners to provide more income and benefits to the employees instead. Yes, it will transfer that cost to the consumer but so does tipping.
Agreed. Raise prices by whatever percentage needed.
430k TC bullying service staff. 10% for good job? Cheap skate you are.
The poll should ban OP from restaurants.
Tell restaurants to stop taking money. I’m sure they’ll listen😂
It doesn't matter if it's in your culture to tip. If you live in the US you need to adapt because servers are paid as little as $2.30/hour and rely on 15-20% tips. You always have the option of not eating out or returning home to your non-tipping culture and freeing up your $430K job for a US citizen.
I’m in Seattle. Minimum wage is $20. They make more than you Glinda.
So glad I left Redmond 10 years ago so I don't run into people like you that berate service workers and other people's TC. Please go home. I am sure the US can do without your "talent."
This is a clickbait post. If not, OP should be ashamed of herself.
What did the waitress say? Should have taken a video
They won't.. how else would a server make 7000$/night at a Michelin star restaurant?
A Michelin star restaurant... like Olive Garden?
Why do you go out to eat if you can’t afford to tip? Also, try going to a real restaurant instead of Olive Garden, and you might get better service. Seeing as how you can only tip 10%, you may have never been to such restaurants before to have experienced them.
Why is this under tech industry lol
For clout
