Why The U.S. Won’t Do Away With Tipping
Переглядів 931,035
6 місяців томуIt’s no secret that we’re tipping like never before - everywhere and for everything. While it can certainly be frustrating, there’s a greater issue at hand: There are 5.5 million tipped workers in the United States and out of all 50 states, 43 have a lower minimum wage for these workers than for non-tipped hourly workers. Many states adhere to the federal minimum wage for tipped workers, which has remained at $2.13 for more than three decades. That means these workers rely on tips to make ends meet. In 2022, more than one million workers made the federal minimum wage of $7.25/hour or less. And with tablets at every establishment and more workers outside of just tipped workers asking for tips, servers and bartenders are bearing the brunt. In the second quarter of 2023, tipping at full-service restaurants fell to the lowest level since the start of the pandemic. Watch the video above to learn more.

Why The U.S. Won’t Do Away With Tipping
@mydogisbailey 6 місяців тому
As a consumer, I believe that any restaurant that cannot afford to pay their employees proper minimum wage deserve to shut down. Plain and simple
@Blessed2024. 6 місяців тому
Everyone that owns a restaurant should then close. If you don’t own a restaurant business you dont understand the economics. Especially with what’s starting to happen in Crazy California. They are making restaurants increase thier minimum wage to $20. That’s like a 20-25% increase in everyone’s wages in that industry. So what do you think is gonna happen to you when you go to a restaurant, you’re gonna have to pay a lot more now if that spreads throughout the whole country. Your workplace is not going to increase your wages 20 to 25% overnight.. it’s called basic economics.

Just came back from a trip to Italy. An item on the menu would say “$25.” I would get the check and it would be exactly $25. No taxes, no tip. I even tried to tip a bartender for bringing a bottle of wine to our rooftop patio and he downright refused. He told me “this is what I am paid to do.” Tipping is ridiculous. People should be paid for the work they do by their employers; not from the “kindness of customers hearts.” If for some reason you go above and beyond the line of duty serving food, then by all means leave a tip. But their livelihoods shouldn’t be based on some sort of expectation.

There is a popular ramen chain in Japan, Ichiran ramen, that has three restaurants in the NYC area. They do business exactly the way they do business in Japan: no tipping. They make it very clear as you enter the restaurant and at the checkout, they are NOT a tipping establishment. They adjust the pricing accordingly on the menu and when the bill is paid at the front, you pay what you owe, NO tip. This is how restaurants in the USA should handle it. No need to tip, just adjust your pricing.
@TonyChanTurbo 6 місяців тому
I just went to one of the NYC locations. Definitely appreciated the no tip policy. I will say the price is much higher for a bowl compared to the Japan locations though. But eating out in Japan seemed to be more affordable in general. As a country everyone will just have to get used to the higher sticker price for this strategy to work in the US though.

So if I understand this correctly, the sub minimum wage of $2.13 is allowed because it is understood that if the worker does not receive at least $5 in tips per hour then the business will supplement that amount. So basically, your tip actually does not benefit the worker as much as it benefits the business by saving that business from having to pay the worker the extra $5 per hour. Basically your tip is benefitting the business for the first $5/hr, then after that amount is reached, anything extra will benefit the workers? This sounds like a scam to me.

They'll drop a dollar on the table and laugh at the look on the server's face as the server tries to keep their composure on seeing it (I've seen it a couple of times.) We've seen the pictures on social media of fake money left behind or receipts with no tip and rude messages written on them. People work better when they have that pressure valve loosened a bit, and in this case, employers paying a living wage to servers rather than depending on the whims of customers to do it for them would make it better for the company AND the staff.

There is no "doing away" with tipping as it is a voluntary act. A person is only legally obligated to satisfy their debt in the full amount by paying their bill for a service rendered. However, nobody is required by any statute, bylaw, regulation, ordinance, rule, or regulation to engage in the act that is colloquially referred to as "tipping." I cannot understand why people do not comprehend such a simple thing.

There is no "it makes the customer pay more" with tipping. If you pay the standard %, then you pay the exact same amount in either scenario. At the tipping place you pay $20 and a $4 tip. At the no tipping place you pay $24 and no tip (higher price with no tip). It's the exact same thing so who cares.

The whole tipping thing in the US just reeks of putting emotional pressure on your customers to cover your staff wages. it's not the customer being mean when they don't tip, it's the employer being mean not paying their staff enough. Feeling bad for not tipping, even when the service/food is poor, is a sign of having been brainwashed. We tip in the UK, but it's not a case of a default percentage added to every bill, if we feel like tipping, we do. If we don't then we don't but usually good food and service leads to a tip and poor food/service does not. Should be the same in the US but I bet there's places with terrible service and terrible food where they feel like the customer has done them an injustice if they don't tip. What's the point of tipping if it's not up to you to decide whether to tip and how much. It is supposed to be a reward for good service/food, not just a given!

I think the overwhelming majority of consumers in America would not mind restaurant prices going up if it meant no longer having to tip. We are already paying on average about 20% (plus 3% and other fees for healthcare for the workers in California) on top of listed prices in restaurants. Often times that can be on top of sales tax too. The “you pay lower prices because of the lower hourly wage” statement is a bit of a myth if you think about it that way. Also, as someone who has traveled quite a bit, I can’t help but notice that food prices at restaurants is not THAT much more at many restaurants abroad, yet they pay their waiters more than we pay the waiters here in America I’ve seen many waiters in America on the other hand complain that they make more than $23.23 an hour in tips, so I am unsure how many waiters would give up the current system for a set wage even if, in my opinion, $23.23 is more than fair for a waiter/waitress wage.

The issue is servers tend to make a lot more than MW in tips, you notice the lady said she could make $300 a day? So the "good" servers will quit and go to where they make tips if you try to force them to "give up" the tips. People are USED to tipping, so they will STILL tip even if the wages are increased. (you have to FORCE them NOT to tip and many Americans resent being told what to do) "headwinds" is what they called it.... So if you try to change the world on your own you lose your good employees, increase prices over competitors, and have upset customers. I go to a Australian owned coffee shop, for a long time they just didn't have a tipping window on their payment screen and didn't have a tip jar. They finally gave in to customers who WANTED to tip. This is a place that brings your coffee to the table and also cleans the table when you leave.

Obligatory service fees in restaurants work in Europe as well (usually around 10-12% - the same amount as we tip as a rule of thumb for services instead of the 20% of the US).

Dogged persistence will lead to corporate getting involved. Tipping is not about helping the worker, it is about perpetuating the idea that it is okay to remain in business while underpaying your staff. You wouldn't get away with stealing a loaf of bread in this country, but stealing workers' wages is not even a crime in most instances and in red states, even legalized. Wage thefts vastly surpassed burglaries in America and have for years now been the biggest financial crime in the history of this country. Tipped workers are just like us, the should get paid higher wages and if they don't do the job well, they should be put on an improvement plan or fired just like the rest of us.

The tips come from the heart. If restaurant owners force customers to tip, or raise the food price too much, then they may as well close the restaurant. I used to eat out 3-4 times a week, now I rarely go to restaurants as I cook at home, or buy Costco foods, or visit fast food places.

Exactly this. When you travel a lot you see the food prices are actually cheaper than US and they are able to pay their servers fair amount with 0 reliance on tips. I was flabbergasted when I was in Switzerland and that felt cheap since there’s no added tip/tax on top of the listed food price.

I'm sure the cashier is a full waged worker! The fact that everywhere else is so greedy on getting tips and made me wanting to revert back to using cash! If using case saves me from spending 6$ on buying 30$ bread, then why not! The restaurant industry might have a problem with tipping since other full waged workers are just getting as much tip!

If a person has extra hundreds, thousands or even millions of dollars, and don't want to give a server at tip whenever they are dining at a nice restaurant, they're being a cheapskate.

I live in California where tipped workers make the same minimum wage as other workers, which is currently around $16 per hour. Despite making a standard minimum wage, customers are still expected to tip at least 15%, and increasingly, are looked down upon if they don't tip 20% to 25%. It's ridiculous! I've stopped doing it. I now tip a flat rate of $2 per person in my party. I typically dine in a party of 4, so that's an extra $8.00 for about an hour's worth of work for just my party's table alone. Assume a waiter serves 3 tables in an hour and gets $8 in tips on each table. Added to the minimum wage of $16, that waiter is now making $40 per hour and that is a conservative estimate since most people still tip 15% to 25%, which will be more than $8 on most tabs. Even if that waiter has to tip out other employees, he will be left with a fair wage.
