the tipped minimum wage is one of the most vile things in American labor tbh

Yooo this is a feminist issue: service industry workers are overwhelmingly minorities, women, and in fact, minority women (who I am sure are already aware of this dynamic). 

Holy shit that sort of minimum wage is vile and disgusting.

That is also why NOT tipping your servers 15-20% in America is considered not just cheap, but incredibly unkind. And 15-20% is the BARE MINIMUM. Tipping less is justified if the server’s, like, super incompetent and totally unapologetic about it, or incredibly, impossibly, unarguably rude or something. That should happen to you, like, maybe twice in your life, unless you’ve got shit luck. Tip your FUCKING SERVERS.

Yup…been going through this shit for two years

I literally did not know this until just now.

You always tip 20%, because someone’s ability to put a roof over their heads and food in their mouths should not depend on your opinion of their attitude and competence. Anything less and I will personally judge the shit out of you, if you can’t afford to tip you can’t afford to eat out, period.
