For those not in the US, tipping culture is a plague on the proletariat. Front of house workers in most places get paid $2.25(was 2.13 when I worked in the food industry 15 years ago)an hour and are expected to make the rest up in tips.

Some restaurants have opted to pay an actual wage(tho not exactly a living wage) with a no-tip policy and have proven that it can work(because duh) but most resturaunts are franchises where one rich fuck owns like 12-15 ir whatever resturaunts in a region and makes six figures for essentially doing nothing.

But hey at least we get free soda refills, right? Except for resturaunts that are opting for cans instead of fountain soda but I guess that's a complaint for another day.
