Because it's how we pay our servants when they perform well. Sorry you don't have that option in your shithole.
i would wring your neck if i met you. before that, humiliate you by showing your friends and family what you get you jollies off to.
you are prey and you know it
Because American restaurant industry takes advantage of it's employees. Tipping went from a formality to a requirement.
Imagine if servers were paid to do their job on a fair wage instead of leaving their salary to the customers.
I just want to know what artist that good at drawing would even consider drawing that and why
> inb4 greentext tipping flight story
because paying decent wages is socialism
> sorry you don't have an exploitative employment culture where people are deliberately paid below minimum, where your workers are expected to prostitute themselves to the whims of patrons who have exactly zero obligations to pay more than what's stated on the bill, but effectively shames patrons into doing so anyway, and where all of this is considered perfectly acceptable
ftfy
Imagine if salesmen were paid to do their job on a fair wage instead of depending on the commission for income.
It's sexy
Yes cow tipping
that's the first good pro tipping argument i ever read.
yeah but paying workers a livable minimum wage and making cost of living expenses affordable would be socialism
/someone else
But 99% of people go to a restaurant knowing what amount they're gonna eat.
It's not like the waiter talks the people into ordering an extra course of food or extra expencive shit - right?
In that case a commission - or tip would make sense, in any other case that *should* be covered by their wage because no matter how good or bad the waiters are nobody is going to diverge from their basic plan for their food.
We just give them fair payment in the first place. Tip is for having good service
This is true. But as long as they have to rely on tips, we should tip them fairly. If you don't wanna tip, make your own damn food.
>livable minimum wage
A "livable minimum wage" doesn't exist because it would have to be different in every single area in the United States.
Side note, get a real job then bud. No one is forcing you to be a server.
>get a real job
>the only people labeled essential are the kind of people living off slave wages
because they underpay workers
this
yeah, pretty much what happens in che civilized world, i.e. europe
typical white trash
Why are foreigners trying to change our way of life? Also Don trump is a mafia boss. The people behind his business and campaign orchestrated 9-11. And now they’re all gonna die really fuckin fast.
>honestly believing that there aren't hundreds of jobs that are considered essential
>using "slave wages" unironically to describe a job you applied, interviewed and trained for
Fucking lol.
no, you fucking shitstain. user implied that servers aren't workers, but salesmen. and salesmen get money depending on their sales. fuck off with this retarded politics shit.
>But 99% of people go to a restaurant knowing what amount they're gonna eat.
not really, a good server would recommend stuff that is not on the card, the specials of the day or something, which are often more expensive. a good service might make customers stay longer and buy more, or come more often.
They’re useless autistic people who will be assassinated when Trump is out of office. So much for the glory of communism in the US. Better be ready to die soon Trump fags.

>zero argument
>HURRR REDDIT SPACING
>a job you applied, interviewed and trained for
How is that supposed to be an argument? I can interpret that a few different ways and none of them help you.
you are though
if with "your" you mean american, it's because you're fucking bastards and make your stupidity not just a problem for yourselves, but for the whole world. close yourselves under a glass dome and stfu, and I promise not a single person will ever again complain about you being complete smoothbrains
oh sorry, did the waiter make my food?
>reddit spacing
is widely accepted argument. go back
Why are non-Americans absolutely obsessed with America?
They have no culture in the last 500 years so all they have is American media.
because every time anyone does anything, you have to show to the world the clowns you are
Most Americans make far more money than you do.
We are a generous people.
We serve the entire globe, we give aid to billions, we like to reward our working class, especially when they go above and beyond in their service, and since we aren't scraping by for our next meal like most of you third worlders, we can afford to leave a $5 tip without thinking twice.
I'm sorry you struggle, I'm sure if you approach your local municipalities you can try to secure some American financial aid, we ship out trillions of dollars worth every year to places like Europe and Asia.
Please continue tipping. I'm in a restaurant. If you don't I'll make sure to give you an extra salty taste of shit or spit in that food of yours. God bwess
>Most Americans make far more money than you do.
We need it to pay the exorbitant rents and taxes for the most expensive military in history
>We are a generous people.
Naw, not really.
are you working in a restaurant or are you in one right now by chance?
Respect other cultures you bigot
>no history in the last 500 years
>literally 500 years of revolutions, new discoveries and deep changes in society
if you don't know what happened in 500 years doesn't mean nothing happened, you turd. americans btw have ONLY 500 years of history, as opposed to us. their "american dream" and their stupid ass patriotism are just what they use to feel like a nation and not just a bunch of random people escaped from poverty and famine, only to become even poorer
Id rather imagine not paying $50 for a meal. Its not my problem many cannot fimd better jobs. They can take my tip amd lile it or they can quit and prostitute. Either way im paying and tippimg according to the quality of their performance
former restaurant owner here. the lower class prefers the tipping culture. it's just another form of gambling, and it's my belief they're addicted to the emotional thrill of checking what the tip is when the customer leaves. it's sad to see.
tipping happens after the meal is eaten, comrade. how's the weather in moscow?
For shit like this most of u retards in murica live from hand to mouth each month and take loans that u dont really need.
>"we serve the globe"
by exporting war and importing oil
>"we give aid to billions"
the billions that are in need because of you, and not even all of them
>"we like to reward our working class"
by underpaying them
you either are brainwashed or retarded from the start
Irrelevant. The waiters rely on tips. We live in a tip culture. Don't be a nigger.
making people starve isn't a culture. also, it's ironic that to say so is literally who brought to extinction the few native americans left
>also, it's ironic that to say so is literally who brought to extinction the few native americans left
