That is the sound of the price of the food you are getting going up. Either way you will pay the price, whether by tip or by base price.

That statement was actually kind of true. If they paid their waitstaff (as they should), that cost would definitely be reflected in the bill. Cutting out that cost gives the illusion of a cheaper dining experience.

What other reason is there for the restaurant only paying a tiny wage?

Just like the waiters can work somewhere that pays a steady normal wage.

Of course it's your choice but, if you don't tip, restaurant owners wont be able to hire good servers unless they pay a living wage. The only way they can make up the extra payroll it to raise their prices, which means you wont have a choice, you pay more.

That's common in a two-server role.. One is the "voice" while the other is the "hands".
I'm not a big fan of it either.

All of you "I don't tip" people should bend over, put your lips on your asshole, and suck your own shit out.

Or just pay the staff appropriately, I know what my bill will be, and get rid of all this talk......just a thought.

My waiter makes 10 bucks and hour, I know exactly what me bill will be, and if he/she does great...I leave some extra money on the table, if they suck then I don't.

I'm sorry, but where? where else can they find a job? can they afford to lose the job they currently have and find one in time before they run out of money they saved? Whats the current unemployment %? Easier said than done. You make it sound like people have other options that can be easily achieved.

And in order to pay their employees more, all menu prices will be raised 20%...

This is about incenting behavior.

I work in sales and get paid on commission. The conditions under which I get paid reinforce the work my company wants me to do.

Good tipping encourages better service.

Bad tipping is why they never come back to your table and refill your drinks.
Absolutely. I just wonder if this pastor knew that the server relies on tips.
I have noticed at several restaurants the service is far worse when in a large group. When a person receives bad service they should not be required to tip either. Of course that is what managers are for.

I imagine in those situations the tips are shared more amongst the entire team of waiters/servers/busboys instead of a huge percentage going to the waiter.

Hey man, I TIP, usually 25%.

I just get really perturbed at the people that say I HAVE to tip. No, I dont.

Simple solution.

Don't leave a tip.
Some restaraunts ask that of the employees though. So it isn't the server's fault.

I don't know, ask them. It's not part of the bill so it's not mandatory.

Like I said earlier, I DO TIP, and I tip well for good service.

I'll never eat at BK again without a coupon or some shit. For that, I'd rather shovel out another $6 or so to get a full dine-in experience.
