I think many of you don't understand a simple concept so let me spill it out for you. We servers work for less than minimum wage. Your tips are what sustain us. I'm not asking for anything like $15 minimum wage or anything but be considerate to give at least a 10% tip but 15% is better and more appreciated. This isn't a big fucking deal for you.

Might not be a good idea to work a job expecting gratuities in a shitty economy, just saying...

nice blog post you fucking faggot

>customer copy

My point is most people here are spending what, $10 on themselves for lunch at an eating establishment Will it kill you to throw an extra $3 down?

It says merchant right on it.

>We servers work for less than minimum wage
This sounds illegal, maybe you should form a union. Also the same pen was used to write in the tips and scribble out the cc number.

go fuck yourself I tip very generously. well over 20%. but if you were ever my server I wouldn't tip you shit.

So at 10000$ order you expect 1000$?
kys.

We don't have to give you a penny. Be grateful that you get anything at all.

>"servers work for less than minimum wage"
>implying you get less than what is minimum
>less than
>minimum

Fuck off get a better job, Can't? I don't give a fuck serve me my food and fuck off back to the kitchen busboy.
>"I'm a student"
>Think I care about what you do and how you live

Rot in hell. You earn it. I tip 10% if i can afford it

Why is this allowed? Why do you expect people to pay you extra money for your job? Why is it my problem that "servers work for less than minimum wage"?

We can't form a union.

I expect to get whats fair for good service. If someone is spending $10,000 on dinner they can afford to tip well.

Be grateful that your service is good because if you snub us long enough that can change.

>why can't everyone I meet just give me $3?
>it's not much for them, but for me it adds up to a lot

Sounds about right....

fuck you cry fag.
get a job where you dont have to live off of tips or better yet be your own boss.
you dont deserve a fucking thing in this world and the sooner you learn that the sooner you'll learn what bootstraps are.

Fuck off i purposely dont tip so people like you get the picture to get a better job

They have zero obligation to help you, whereas you have an obligation to do your job if you want to keep it. Tough luck friend

it's not, it's a greedy "tradition" from the guilded age. but if I had to deal with a fucking whiny brat like OP he wouldn't get shit

>If someone is spending $10,000 on dinner they can afford to tip well.
If someone drives by you in a $100,000 Tesla, they can afford to give you a few hundred dollars, at least, right?

>be me
who else would you be?

I'm not a student.

Alright dude. Just remember us servers are good at remembering faces. Better than you think.

I am asking for you to pay extra for the quality service you are receiving. People take things like good service for granted because they are used to it for so long.

>I think many of you don't understand a simple concept so let me spill it out for you. We servers work for less than minimum wage. Your tips are what sustain us.
Then fucking earn it. I worked waiting tables for four years in college, believe me, I get it - but nobody's fucking *obligated* to tip you, you gotta earn that shit.

Lazy, entitled little shits like you give their customers' sass when they take their order, serve out plates with an attitude, give them the bum rush the moment finished eating, and then act like they deserve a 30% tip because 'like they totally refilled that one guy's glass' are exactly *why* so many people have stopped tipping.

>Having to beg for and rely on tips to sustain a basic life because your job doesn't pay enough
Fuck off you 3rd world monkey.

>implying Burgers have rights

>10$ lunch
>3$ tip

So you want a 30% tip? Go fuck yourself.

if you're a regular at a place and don't tip you're shooting yourself in the foot.

Tips are gifts you ungrateful bitch.

How about you ask your boss for a raise instead of begging from your customers?

>Be grateful that your service is good because if you snub us long enough that can change.
So what you're saying is you're going to purposely do a bad job? I'm sure your boss will appreciate that.

>We servers work for less than minimum wage. Your tips are what sustain us
If you make less than minimum wage in tips, which you faggots never fucking do, your employer is obligated to pay you minimum wage
Faggot.

>get pleb tier job that a 5 year old could do
>get paid fuck all because said job could be done by a trained monkey
>HALP I NEED YOU TO GIVE ME MORE MONEY
>I'M JUST A POOR BOY FROM A POOR FAMILY
>why won't you people tip good?
>triggered by such a low wage

Here's an idea faggot, get a job that isn't shit, that any faggot of the street could do.

You chose to work in such a low paying job, it's not up to Joe Public to cover for your stupid decisions.

I'm already overpaying tip due to living in the city... keep complaining and you get nothing.

why? in case they start messing with your food? so the tip is really a ransom demand for regular customers?

If you're a regular at a place, it's because the food and the service is good, which means you're more likely to tip.

Service is guaranteed by the restaurant that you work at. The type of service you give is not at your discretion. The chain you work for has standards and if you don't meet those standards you can easily be fired. How do you not understand this?

That's because it is illegal.

I swear, the only people that don't seem to know that restaurants are REQUIRED to pay minimum wage (such as, in the event that tips did not reach minimum wage for the evening) are the restaurant workers themselves that whine about this.

If you work a 6 hour shift and get less than (minimum wage)*6 you are legally entitled to ask for the difference.

An employer of a tipped employee is only required to pay $2.13 an hour in direct wages if that amount plus the tips received equals at least the Federal minimum wage.

> if that amount plus the tips received equals at least the Federal minimum wage

You do make minimum wage you stupid cuck, but are in position to possibly make more. Why should I tip you and not the faggot working at Mcdonalds who will only make minimum wage with no tips?

>2017 being this retarded

No i'm not expecting strangers on the street to give me $3 just people getting my service.

Some of us are unable to do this at the moment.

Ok but like I told the other guy , we are good at remembering faces.

This is a terrible analogy. A better one would be if your Tesla salesman should get a tip and i'd argue yes.

>We servers work for less than minimum wage
first, why am i responsible for your choice of careers
second, if you actually make less than minimum wage your employer has to make up the difference

Ever heard of the quote "Don't bite the hand that feeds you", and according to you, you make your living off tips so stop being a whiny bitch and either sit down and shut up or move to another job.

pick a different job faggot

niggers never tip. I became racist from that shit fuck them. Mexicans tip very little. Whites are the only ones who gave a shit.

I agree. 15% should be the legal minimum tip and if anyone that tips less should be arrested and jailed. I need to buy the latest apple products on release day and these insensitive fucks need to start tipping me more. If they can't tip properly they should not eat out. Full stop.

I'll give you a nickle if you tickle my pickle.

Then if you're not a student I could give two shits about you, get a job where you actually make money instead of panhandling your customers.

>A better one would be if your Tesla salesman should get a tip and i'd argue yes.
ok let's hear your argument for that

Don't be silly, they know. They just realize they usually get $20 an hour with tips so don't want to settle for minimum wage.
An attractive waitress can pay more per hour than a skilled job in some cases.

It's not like that though. Do you realize how much work a serving a 10,000 dollar meal would take. And if it doesnt take that much and you where not impressed by the service you don't tip that much then. If you tip a tattoo artist for a 400 dollar tattoo you dont give them a 4$ tip you give them 40$
Are you really this much or an asshole social retard you don't know how tips work?

keep viewing it the way you are and see if that works out for you. or you could take responsibility for your life and stop pawning it off on people you find inferior. take a few steps back and observe, faggot.

I never tip. I usually only eat at a place once or twice

If you make under what normally counts as minimum wage, take it up with your employer.

He's supposed to pay you the difference if you make under that amount.

Stop feeling entitled to my money too. I come to a place to eat, not to see your shitty little face

i know these type of peope irl.
depending on the place theyll make over 300 a day easy, just in tips.
yet if one table stiffs them they start crying like this faggot

if you don't like the job then quit, or better yet quit life

Get a real job you fucking beggar.

Not true in Michigan. If your tips plus pay don't meet minimum wage the owner has to up the pay till the server meet minimum wage.

It is the legal minimum, but it's not enforced.
Look some people are assholes. but more often than not the waiter did a shitty job, so they get nothing.
You never hear about this, because what waiter is going to say "I didn't get tipped because I screwed up".

You sound mad. Clearly this industry wasn't for you.

It's not my fault the system is this way but it is this way.

That was an example of a generous tip but i all honesty 15-20% is the right number.

This. We remember. We all do. We tell the cooks.

>Tips are required to make up the difference in minimum wage
>they are a gift

Just stop

My boss wouldn't care. He'd do a song and dance in front of the customer but the moment they leave pat you on the back and say don't listen to them.

>just people getting my service.
But they pay you for your service, they pay for the meal. If the cost of your service isn't included in the meal then that's the restaurants fault.

I've been there so I always tip. It varies, but usually between 15-30% depending on what bills I have. Barista-tier is $1 flat rate, bartender $1 per interaction (I tip on water).

Restaurant work is the fucking worst nightmare, it forces you to be polite to absolute dipshits who think the plate of food just materialized out of nowhere

So you're employer is a criminal?

You're not entitled to other people's money and you were the one that chose that job. If you fuck with other peoples food because they didn't pony up what you feel your employer should be paying you anyway, you're dirt. Personally if I had to get up and collect my order from the cooks window and get my own soda I'd be perfectly fine with cutting out the middleman who also happens to be the most ungrateful and entitled job I've ever had the misfortune of coming into contact with.

I work as a server at a diner in Philadelphia and maaaaaaaan I love when the animal niggers walk in. I know exactly whose food im going to be spitting, pissing or vomiting in. I even save some fecal I made earlier in the day and put little specks of it in the salad or sauce.

fuck niggers hahahaha

no people don't really do that. i wouldn't. i'll always provide the best service i can and don't really get pissed if people don't tip. it's a gift ultimately. that's not what i was insinuating.

right, agreed. plus if you get cool with the people working there they're more likely to facilitate some of your stranger requests. i mean i've helped regulars i like move in the past just because i got cool with them. people who are regulars where i work and don't tip are fine, whatever, just another face. you get shit comped too if you're a regular who's cool and tips.

ultimately i guess i'd prefer to get no tips and just have people be decent towards me. i'm trying to save up for school so i don't have to do this forever. i'm not some faggot who hates all of you.

Meh, I only tip delivery drivers more than a buck or two

I fucking tip $3 on a $15 pizza order (Place I order from lets you tip when you order) and I always get my shit first and a huge thank you.

I remember this local pizza shop had the best gormet chicken pizza which was $16/pie

I would get it every other week and just give the driver a $20. Always got my food fast and hot.

Never thought anything of it until they shut down (Owner died) and they gave me the recipe to make it since I was such a loyal customer.

no one cares what you work for. You chose to work for that wage. You are the sucker not me you dumb faggot.

Anyone who doesn't tip at least 20% is literally a nigger. Tipping is a shitty system but as long you're in America, either do it or be known as a literal nigger.

I worked at high end restaurants and bars when I was younger and pulled in $50/hr averaged out at the best place I worked. This place had a lot of famous people come in (including faggot Obama) and even the famous niggers were shitty tippers. That was one of my first red pills on blacks and what awful "people" they are.

Ok, listen you fucking asshat. Serving jobs are entry level jobs. I'm not sure at what time period in the Norman Rockwell era USA it became acceptable to raise a family on a bussing/serving job, but it is not.

The TIP was designed as a courtesy. Nobody is entitled to give you a tip. Its a bonus. Just like when you outperform in the stock market, you take home a bonus and buy a ferrari.

Here is your simple concept. Look at your life. Take stock of your career skills and ask yourself, is waiting on people to finish feeding a sustainable career ? Can your back and feet support yourself on this ?

If the answer is yes. Look at the automated fast food joints who are going to replace your career in 10 years.

If not, BTFO and stop bringing your socialist bullshit into POL.

Or better yet, unionize your workplace. Hike your minimum wage to an affordable level and sit back. Your boss will goal seek in MS Excel just how many cucks he needs to fire to stay in business and you will not be unemployed and forced to retrain into a real field of work.

Cuck.

The less than minimum wage argument is complete bullshit.

>They are purposely paid less than minimum wage because they receive tips.
NOT
>They are paid less than minimum wage so you should tip to make up for it.

Employers like to push the agenda that tipping should be a bonus for good service when in reality they are just offloading their labor cost directly onto the patrons. This is the most jew scheme ever.

>Do you realize how much work a serving a 10,000 dollar meal would take
Certainly not $2000 worth of work. Likely not even $200 worth of work. It can't possibly take all day.

>My boss wouldn't care. He'd do a song and dance in front of the customer but the moment they leave pat you on the back and say don't listen to them.
He must love losing money then, it's a great way to lose business.

>he thinks it's that simple

You haven't dealt with the worst dregs of society. You don't know how hard this job can be. 90% of niggers try to run away without paying the bill and that comes out of MY pocket.

Some of us are between jobs asshole. For example almost all waiters in LA are actors doing that part time till they make it big.

and keep paying nothing and you'll be wondering if that is pubic hair in your french onion soup or not.

>on couch watching tv instead of on uncomfy chair watching my gf text
not trying to be a dick leaf but she does that shit because you let her

Here they do make minimum wage, which I did myself for many years.

In American, they will pay you minimum wage if your tips do not reach that amount. You get at least what you agreed to work for, either way. Sometimes more.

Most people do not get tips on top what they agreed to work for. You are not obligated to recieve them. They are a bonus.

Off yourself, you don't do anything tip worthy

He must have been new, but I gave a $200 tip to a guy at a place called Aria in Atlanta. Great service and didn't feel fake like many waiters.
>he can't read

Strive for a life better than a server ffs.

complaining about not getting paid enough for walking around. servers make a lot for the skill and effort required for their job off the tips, for which they should be grateful. they aren't so fuck those niggers.

I always tip well, period. Its not an ethics thing, but simple decency.

This guy fucking gets it

>who think the plate of food just materialized out of nowhere
It materialized out of the cooks hands, not the waiters, and last I checked he doesn't get tips. The waiter just took your order and carried the dish a few feet.

Know how I know this a troll thread and not an actual waiter?

Because OP didn't say how 20% is the minimum for tipping now and 25% for good service like most entitled cunts on FB.

Your job is a contract between you and your employer. You both agree on the exchange of labor and services for money. You can't bitch about the terms of a contract you willingly sign and blame other people for it.

Fuck off you dumb nigger, I used to work for 2 dollars an hour at waffle house and I never guilt tripped people about tipping.
If you went above and beyond you'd probably get tipped more.

>pay me this optional gratuity that I am entitled to, or else I will fuck with your food next time I see you

Servers are literally the worst. Mass automation can't happen soon enough

> I only tip delivery drivers
This

These guys actually have to work a bit harder than the rest and are actually deserving of a tip.

You complain that I should pay you money for bringing my food to the table? Fuck off, if I could I would just walk up and get my own order from the kitchen.

YOU ARE USELESS

> It can't possibly take all day.

hahahaha

soft-handed naive little fucker. cooks at legitimate restaurants are some of the hardest working people i know. yes, sometimes a dinner will take over one day to make.

lol no, we're both getting fucked in the ass by the restaurant owner...They get to charge food at normal price plus 10 to 20 percent. You still get barely minimum wage, and we have to pay more.

So if anyone's getting fucked in the ass, I rather it be you than me.

>We servers work for less than minimum wage

Knowing that, why did you choose to become a server instead of literally any other job where your employer would pay you at least minimum wage without having to depend on charity?

FUCK THE JEWS. KILL THEM ALL

Wow you're a tough guy? GIT URSELF READY FOR SUM BOOGERS N' CUM

Service gratuity is a form of gratitude by the customer to show the service they received was above average. I can give what my company expects from me or I can go above and beyond but I expect friendly compensation for it.

Who said this was our careers and not a for now job?

None of you know me so it's fine to vent.

In time I will. Just not right now.

>do you realize how hard the cook has to work?
>give me a fucking tip for carrying his hard work over to you

Get a load of this idiot. He thinks people willingly work in restaurants, and don't slowly slide into management only to find they wasted their life serving ungrateful retards.

t. Got out while I could and can now say I have "restaurant management experience" in case of career trouble

tipping is a disgusting system.
just pay your employees a salary you cheap fuck don't try to guilt trip me into doing it for you.

I don't give a shit about you or your shitty job. learn a trade
