Cool. So you get to look like a dick and actively make someone’s life more difficult. You not tipping doesn’t change the employers mind. It just makes someone else’s life worse. Congrats.
What are you talking about? Servers rarely if ever get minimum wage, which federally is still 7.25, which is not enough to live off of. If they were making $23 in many places they’d be doing a lot better. But that’s not the reality of the situation.
He’s an Austrailian pretending a thread about American tipping culture applies to him at all. I guess the min wage in the brush is $23, and he therefore assumes that is the case worldwide because idk egocentrism (thanks Piaget!).
Of course, that is an incredibly reasonable assumption for one to make in a thread about tipping culture, which is primarily American since it came from American prohibition.

Employees quitting is what changes employers minds.
What are you taking about? Minimum wage is like $23 per hour. Why would they need tips on top of that?

It’s right here https://www.australianunions.org.au/factsheet/minimum-wages/. $23.23 per hour as of this year. Where are you getting your 7.25 figure from? It sounds like that’s the USA

I just said I don’t tip, and why. GP assumed I was in USA and cruel. I never assumed USA tipping culture applies to me. That’s why I don’t tip.

How would I know how your tipping culture originated? You’re on lemmy.world not lemmy.usa.
Ah-ha, but lemmy.world is on the internet, not in real life! Check mate! Let’s both go outside lmao.
Fair enough. Good day to you! Thanks for the chat.
They’re still entitled to minimum wage if they don’t get enough tips, so there should be no issue for customers to not tip.
The customer doesn’t look like a dick, the employer does.
