Comment on higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs

  If they have started charging this service fee customers will be less inclined to tip on top. So if the money from the service fee is not entirely being used to increase staff wages, then the restaurant management is effectively stealing their tips. That is wage theft in spirit if not legal definition.

    This conclusions requires two separate assumptions from you that are not evidence-based

      The sun’s core being filled with a quark plasma soup instead of, for example cotton candy, is also an assumption that is not evidence-based.

      It’s almost like we as humans can use logic and reason to determine things to be extremely significantly probable without having proof in our hands.

        The sun’s composition is absolutely evidence-based.

        You’re making the assumption that 1: this money is embezzled by the owner

        2: people are less likely to tip

        You’re also making a third: that servers receiving less pay won’t go elsewhere

        Whereas we extrapolate from data to understand the Sun (moving from evidence to conclusion) you are starting with your expected result and then manufacturing caused (embezzlement, lack of tips)

        This is the opposite of using “logic and reason”
