Its extremely funny to me that people still bring this up like its actually relevant to any broad swathe of population.

- Comment on Waffle House workers demand liveable wages and tip protections. 3 months ago:
This comment shows a complete lack of knowledge as to how tipping works in 2024.
It’s not 1985 anymore. Unless you work in the sketchiest of shit-hole dive bars in an incredibly small town, people aren’t dodging taxes on their tips and using food stamps/medicaid.
Im always reminded of how little people know about industries outside of their own until someone starts talking about something im familiar with.
It’s quite funny how wrong people can be.

- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
Not wrong. The local markets i have experience with are the most populated locations in the United States. Portland, chicago, New york, miami, seattle, la, sf, atlanta.
I would imagine living in hondo, tx sucks ass but that’s not because of tipping.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
Ok, I’ll lay out for all of you idiots.
In our current system, customers almost directly pay wages for servers and chefs, and it stays tied to menu prices. Thus, wages go up when prices go up.
In this suggested system, you trust the ownership class to raise wages for some reason because that works fantastically in the United States.
Im not sure why youre suggesting that, because the capitalist class will always, always, always bleed whatever they can dry. You know that, i know that, the railworkers in the us know that.
Like come on, use your tiny tiny brain that apparently cant multiple 50 times .2 and think about this fir a second. This will and has absolutely lead to wage suppression because they will absolutely not raise qages once they are set.
Fuck.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
The extra money comes from the customer no matter the system.
But now wages will stay down while ownership makes more.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
Its nuts to me how many people in this thread support and trust the ownership class.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
That’s a false comparison, and you know it.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
Wait, are you telling me that the market decides wages and we should be happy with it?
That’s capitalist bullshit.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
Fwiw, the industry has changed. Chefs are paid on par with foh nowadays.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
Do you have a source on that statement?
I do not own a restaurant but am a worker, bartender specifically.
Every restaurant that i know of or have worked in that switches to a non-tipped wage leads to suppressed/lower wages, and that’s from someone who has intimate access to the books.
Pay is definitely more consistent but not as high on average by design.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
Continue advocating for the owner class then i guess.
Staff make more money on a tipped system than not.
- Comment on Restaurant group in Massachusetts is trying to reject a public vote on paying tipped workers 5 months ago:
In most major cities youd be hard pressed to find even an ‘ok’ position that is paying minumum wage. Most are making 20-25+tips.
