    Yes. People can do what they want. Tips are optional, and are for good service…not to subsidize owners. If you can’t afford to work in a restaurant, find something else to do for a living.

        I haven’t eaten at a McDonald’s since the 90s. I refuse to support that corporation.

        I just think that it’s on owners to pay their staff a living wage, or for staff to realize they’re not going to be able to make a decent living and move on to something where they can. If an owner can’t make that work, the business wasn’t strong enough to survive anyways.

        I lived in Australia for a few years and think their system is far better. The only way our system is going to change is for people to reject it.

          Wait you take a moral stand against McDonald’s but are willing to stiff workers at restaurants and support owners that are taking advantage of them? This take makes no sense.
