      Were trying, and I agree that tipping is ridiculous. But in the meantime, don’t take your frustrations about it out on the servers by not tipping.

        This is it right here. Protest by not going to tipped establishments.

          I’ve done one better, I’m just never going to the US again.

      Yeah, they’re more than happy to take it out on the foreign customers but not their bosses. Which follows how the US handles politics too.

      Happy to take it on the immigrants but aren’t holding their leaders responsible.

      By the way, maybe some of you yanks will take my lack of tipping for you pushing your stupid tipping culture overseas and ruining other places too. I’m joking though. I’m not going to the states any more.

      I’m in a more progressive state (that does not allow for less than minimum wage) so my perspective may be limited. But I think if you looked at a profit and loss statement at 99 out of 100 restaurants where tipping is the norm, you likely wouldn’t be calling restaurant owners “rich bags.”

      Why the fuck are you entitled to tipping restaurants when you don’t agree with how they do business? Truly what is wrong with you people?
