    You clearly have no idea how the industry works. In most places bartenders, cooks, and bussers are tipped out from the servers tips. They each get a certain percent of total tips the server made that night. So the person who made the food DOES get that tip you leave, as does the person who made your cocktail, and the person who cleaned up after you. So to say they prefer you don’t tip is utter bull shit. Get your cheap ass off that high horse. Your protest is nothing but you being selfish and grasping at any excuse to justify your shitty actions.

      Ummmm I literally worked in the industry myself… which is exactly why I’m against tipping. I’m fully aware of the ‘tip out’ process. And you know as well as I do the vast majority goes to servers. And, at least in my experience, 0% went to after hours cleaning crew. And definitely none went to the chair manufacturer or the plumber who fixes the shitters. You can try to justify to yourself as much as you like, but it’s an inherently unfair system. Especially when assholes like me can just get away with tipping $0. Doesn’t seem too fair… and if anyone should be in favour of it, wouldn’t it be the assholes who don’t tip? They are the ones who directly benefiting from tip subsidized meals.

      I’m still waiting for someone to explain how a system of inconsistent donation based income is better than a consistent and fair one… no one has even tried yet :(
