$11 cannoli etc.

18% service charge and then still ask for tips? Fuck all of this, this is a scam and refuse to pay this shit.

Based on the bottom of the receipt i would have said to the server something like “great, it says right here no need to tip”

What a lovely way to ensure that your customers will never return.

How about just raising prices since it is a cost of running the business.
Natanael@slrpnk.net 7 months ago
Exactly, it’s a linear extra cost so just bump all the prices that much.

But if you tell the customer how much things cost they won’t buy as much.
It’s just layer upon layer of dishonesty. The only time businesses get honest is when the government forces them to.

In a vacuum that would be fine. But in the current culture that likely wouldn’t overcome the tipping standard/culture and may just drive customers away thinking the prices are too high. Unless you have a huge blatant no tipping sign all over the place.
This isn’t too indigestible as it stands provided the wait staff understand they are likely to only get a tip for excellent service.
But to do this on top of an 11 dollar cannoli. That’s a bit different too. I hope it was like a dozen cannolis.

That sounds just like tipping, but with more steps. And also the resteraunt skimming a chunk of it too I’m sure. 18% service fee so we can pay 8% higher wages.
WhipTheLlama@lemmy.world 7 months ago
That sounds like the exact same amount of steps as tipping.
freeman@lemmy.pub 7 months ago
If anything it’s less steps. You aren’t doing any math or making any judgement calls with a service charge.
