SERVICE INDUSTRY

[Anonymous No.54376930]

Should the service industry pay their employees a liveable wage?

She's only allowed to post that because she said it was "Europeans" stiffing her, when in actuality a majority of her light tips are basketball Americans.

>25% tip
Sign of a recession. Might as well make it 30%, or 50%, and make a site just about naming and shaming people who tip only 40%. Then no one will dine out and there won't be any tips at all. It's the same mechanism that lead advertisers to put 10 minutes of ads into the programming for every 15 minutes of showtime, and now nobody watches TV anymore.

>gets paid the equivolent of $35 an hour by 1 table just to bring out like 3 plates of food and refill drinks twice
>noooo you didnt pay me a high enough percentage of your bill!!!
Tipping is so fucking gay and waiters/waitresses can suck my hairy asshole. If my bill is $1000 that server only worked marginally harder than on a $100 bill.

>people constantly pontificating about euro waiters making €12/hour when any cute waitress at a high end restaurant is making $50/hour easily on Friday-Sunday

[Anonymous No.54377020]

She's complaining about $70? A lot of foreigners will do $0. Also cute that their "suggested tip" starts at 20% now, fuck them. 20% is for exceptional service, 10% for merely adequate.

I'm planning on going to NYC for 10 days but will not be tipping as I'm going to fast food places we don't get here.

10% tip is standard, what's her problem?

[Anonymous No.54377066]

Her fault she doesn't work at a retreat forces large group reservations an 18% gratuity.

[Anonymous No.54377126]

Won't help its a culture things.

In my province of Canada the minimum wage is like 15$ but you are still expected to tip 15-20%.

I don't complain because my wife is a waitress and brings home huge wads of cash every night. She makes as much as I do as a Journeyman Electrician and in summer she makes double. Sometimes as much as 600$ for a whole day or 400$ for a dinner service.

Waitressing is probably the highest paid unskilled job by far. It pays more than most skilled jobs. They make more than skilled trades, more than truckers, more than legal aides, more than dental techs or vet techs, more than teachers, more than accountants, more than bank tellers. Nurses probably make more with all the crazy over time they get but nursing sucks ass and you have to go to school for like 3 years for it. And trades who live in the boonies doing resource work like loggers who live in camps or guys who live in the sands probably make more also.

What about stripping? Or Escorting?

[Anonymous No.54377227]

>>54377168
I don't know maybe...

I don't know what an escort goes for, like 300$-500$?

So you'd have to screw at least 2 guys a day to make as much as a waitress at a good restaurant. Each one pays for an hour but it's probably like another hour of prep to get ready and cleaned up afterwards, and you have to make your own advertisements and deal with customers over the phone which takes time and half of them probably don't show up despite that time investment. And then you run the risk of getting mugged or beat up.

Waitresses make the same amount of money much easier and in almost as short a time period I'd wager.

I think you're over estimating how much waitresses make.

[Anonymous No.54377261]

0% tip always. If you can't tip beforehand, then the level of service you received was always going to be the same outcome anyway, meaning the tip associates with no increase or decrease in your level of service received. Anyone that doesn't realize this is parting with their money for no fucking reason.

This. I'll just never visit a restaurant and shame all my friends that tip below 25%

[Anonymous No.54377505]

>>54377261
See, I am the opposite. When asked to tip beforehand I will always give 0%. I dont know how good of a service someone is going to provide and I am not giving a tip for shit service.

[Anonymous No.54377508]

What do u poors want instead? Food/drink prices raised 18% and the servers make a 18% commission on all food sales? Then they just become shitty car salesman up selling everyone to whatever costs more, not what is enjoyable/delicious

If the servers made no tips and were paid 14$/hr the service would become Walmart tier and you would be better off eating goyslop at mcwendy king jr

The tip is “optional” so the menu prices can be lower for marketing purposes. you can also screw over awful waiters and the good waiters will desperately lick your asshole all service to try and earn 20%+. There is no better option.

Also most restaurants these days require the server to give away 5% of their sales to support staff like bussers bartenders and food runners, so if you leave 0$ they actually are net negative $

I order one plate and can go get it myself. 80% of the time it comes out cold and I never get refills on my drinks. The waitress is always in some back corner talking to a friend or texting. I get pissed the hot $18 plate I was looking forward to all day isn't as good and now I'm expected to pay more???

[Anonymous No.54377543]

>What do u poors want instead?
Get RID of them. Chefs sets the food out on the counter, and it just sits there to get cold. Why can't I walk up, show my receipt, and grab it?

We need to normalize not tipping for bad service and tipping for good service. Not tipping for bad service and tipping more for good service. What we have now is a system that doesn't do what it should: encourage good service. There are tons of shit servers out there expecting their tip gibs.

Waitresses at medium to higher end restaurants easily clear 65k a year easily. If you're at a fancy steakhouse in NYC you're gonna be making 120 minimum.

Ah yes, because a percentage needs to be inflation-adjusted.

>>54376930
It’s the working nights and weekends thing. If you removed the tipping pay structure, nobody would do the job that you would want coming within 50 feet of you. Tipping is what keeps non-retards in the business and justifies them working the long and bad hours dealing with n-words and rude slobs. You’d have only 16 year-old dummies and sheboons waiting on you if tipping stopped.

[Anonymous No.54378002]

>>54376930
Yes. Eating out has been become too commonplace and replacing family meals. Service industry jobs should be paid more thus making dining out more expensive.

My wife is a waitress i'm not.

This is in Canada though by the way. Here the minimum wage is way higher but we still tip the same as in America for some reason.

[Anonymous No.54378083]

That is how counter service places like five guys, starbucks, mccucks work

You go to a sit down restaurant for the experience of dining in and being served

Two completely different concepts

Nah dude my wife isn't a thot, most women aren't that bad. I used to post on /r9k/ when I was 18 but women are actually alright, just a bit entitled and manipulative but most aren't that bad.

I'm actually in school right now because I got sick of trades and I work part time as a cook in the restaurant where my wife works.

Waitresses really do make fat stacks.

I never tip, like never ever! You already receive a salary, do you tip some one at the book store when you buy a book or do you tip the guy at the supermarket? In fact tipping is rude, it's like throwing a coin to a homeless person because you pity them.

[Anonymous No.54378122]

>>54376930
No. The service I have received in non-tipping cultures is trash. The service I received in tipping cultures is great. Therefore, we should keep tipping culture. I always tip at least 30%.

[Anonymous No.54378126]

It's more than 10%. That's generous.

“Should” is a really retarded and pointless concept. The service industry will pay as much as the labor market demands, or they will lose workers and lose business. It would be nice if people stopped tipping, to force the restaurant owners to feel the pain of underpaying their workers, but I’m not in charge of that nor would I pretend that I could make some sort of nationwide impact just by complaining on social media like an idiot.

It's stupid. Just make it illegal to tip and the price will increase. Not sure how you do it with taxation, but I guess waiters are somehow special and excempt. Glad we don't have such a shit and broken system, but we have others.

It's already Walmart tier, some bimbo who dropped out of community college middle man-ing my drinks and food doesn't make it elite. I'm not as easily impressed as you are apparently

>Most restaurants these days require...

Absolutely not my problem in any reality or imagination stretch. Thanks for this post, it's going to inspire me to continue not tipping everywhere I go. The irony of calling everyone poors and trying to beg 15 percent of my bill just because is hilarious

If a waiter / waitress pisses me off even once or doesn't bring me water after I asked I instantly decide not to tip. I've also had one waitress keep the change after I paid on cash when I didn't tell her she could have it, i guess she assumed it was her tip, so I didn't tip that time either. I really don't care anymore these fucking wagies need to learn their place and just do the three things I need them to do without wasting my time.

Anyways you should tip if you go out with friends and get good service. I think 20% is fair if everything is great. Sadly tips don't get distributed to the actual cooks for some reason but whatever. Just don't waste money on eating out bros it's unhealthy anyways and barely saves and time over cooking your own food.

[Anonymous No.54378834]

I like to tell the wagies they did a good job and deserve a big tip. And then leave no tip.

It's an important lesson to impart. Reciprocity is not guaranteed to pay off. I expect nothing in return for sharing this wisdom as they should expect nothing in return for carrying a few cups and plates from kitchen to table.
