    Sure, we both agree on what should be.

    And we both know what is.

    As it is, do you tip at restaurants where the servers rely on it? Do you stiff the worker? Do you not go at all?

      Why would I want to keep a horrific system in place?

      I don’t tip, so the employees can complain to their employer until they change it.

        Not how it works, the employer goes “sucks don’t it?” And then when you get fed up enough to leave they hire another person who is about a week away from homelessness to continue the cycle. Your naivety is astounding.

              I know. My point is your average wage looks like there is no problem. Because of people like Elmo that Jack up the average.

              I’m pressing on your open wounds hoping you to stand up and lash out

              You can start with me for being harsh I don’t care, because I believe.

              I believe that if the American people start getting proper mad, they can do great things.

              So. Let me ask you, when I say: fuck the servers, they deserve what they get

              Whaddya gonna do about it

                    Yeah I may make a bit more now that I left the industry but not that goddamn much, I have to work, I have bills to pay. Since you have so much free time you go right ahead.

                    I’ll continue only supporting businesses that pay (at least more) fairly, and tipping when I do end up at one of those places by chance.
