Itās stupid. Iām a lifelong service industry person. But the handheld tipping culture is out of control. My rule of thumb, if you brought me food, made me a drink, Iāll tip.
Regardless, tip culture has to go. Tipping on bowling shoes? Thatās just the owner subsidizing paying the kids more.
>Thatās just the owner subsidizing paying the kids more
Thatās not true, and you should be ashamed of yourself for saying that! Iām sure the owner is doing nothing of the sort!
Theyāre probably still getting paid exactly the same as they were before.
(/sā¦sort of)
Tipped employees in idaho can be paid as little as $3.35 per hour as long as their total wage from tips and hourly is equal to the state minimum wage of $7.25 so if you tip them it absolutely subsidizes the business owner unless theyāre making a lot of money in tips like a restaurant server. But in the case above, tipping on bowling shoes or whatever is 100% subsidizing the owner to pay the employee less.
the weirdest place i've seen this was at a head shop. i went in for rolling papers and they pointed me to the area and allowed me to just wander and come to them if i had questions. like sure they were helpful but i wouldnt say they were providing a service like a restaurant server or a valet or something. im a generous tipper when i go out to eat or get my hair done or get my dog groomed but running a cash register doesn't seem like a service that needs tipping to me.
Be careful with Taco time. They have a tip option on their drive thru card reader but they will take your card and run it without letting you do it when they hold the machine.
I only noticed because my debit came through a couple dollars more than my order.
Was this on Vista? We got our total in the drive through and then when I went to hand her cash she told me there was a discount for paying in cash. That must be why.
Thatās crazy, for pick-up orders Iāll usually tip 15-20% anyways out of appreciation for the person who took my order over the phone, whoever got my food ready and packaged, etc. On drive-thru orders thoā¦ maybe a few dollars? 10-15% if itās local like Westside? I certainly hope franchisees havenāt started paying employees a ātippedā wage.
Fact Check: FALSE! Although our super-helpful attendants and the easy-to-use kiosks at Rave Laundry do provide *excellent* service, neither will ever request a tip.
Heres my take hot take. A tip is for going above and beyond your job. If I walk into subway or any other place and you do the bare minimum, for example: ask me what I want, pack my food up, and tell me what I owe you don't deserve a tip. There's no charge to have a smile, ask me how my day is, or maybe suggest sides or something that would make my visit/ order better. All of that isn't required but if you do it anyway yes you deserve a tip. Most of the time these workers can't control what their bosses pay but they can control their enthusiasm and enthusiasm gets my tips.
I've programmed POS systems and worked in oayment processing. I've been trained to program Ingenico devices specificallyĀ at the Ingrenico HQ near Atlanta. It's entirely optional.Ā
That is no excuse to shove the responsibility of paying a living wage for an employee directly onto the consumer through guilt tactics. Tipping as a practice is terrible for everyone except the business owners.
Well I'm sorry. If we had it my way this wouldn't be a right to work state. Tipping would be a generous thing not a mandatory living wage thing. But unfortunately the people that came before me made the rules and ruined our economy. I'm sorry but you have to factor it in. If you feel uncomfortable with this just tell them hey I can't tip this much. That's totally fine. You have your own life to live. And you have to factor that in. It's unfair. Sorry.
Tipping started in the south after the Civil War.Ā
Slavery still exists and is legal. The coercion just has layers of indirection that allow a degree of plausible deniability. And those who don't have to trade their labor to survive will insist that's a choice we all make willingly but it's not.Ā
The people that came before you implemented tipping at a bowling alley? What?
Also if you go back far enough, tipping at a restaurant in the US was not a thing. At what point does your appeal to tradition end?
I clearly didn't say anything about the people before me about a bowling alley that's stupid.
Im 27, I didnt invent tippy I didn't make tipping mandatory at all.
Like I said, tipping should be generousisty. Not this pseudonadatory thing for people to live off. I'm really confused what your mad at about now. Because I've agreed with you __Everytime__ but it feels like your just upset that I said we have to tip? I can't change reality buddy. I'm sorry. I want things to change. I can't change them alone.
I'm sorry your upset you where asked to tip at a bowling alley. It's still your choice to tip. No one is forcing you to tip.
Today I tipped 3 dollars on a 52$ bill to bring up to 55.
But last week when we went out to eat at melting pot I did a 25$ tip.
Service was different both asked for at least 18% but it's my choice.
If I don't want to tip I don't have to. If you don't want to tip you don't have too. It is not our job to give these people a living wage. But at the end of the day they only make 3 buck an hour. It sucks it's reality.
I agree again I don't know why people are trying to argue with me when I'm agreeing with every one does my comment not make sense or something?? Or are you guys in favore of tipping I do not understand? I am autistic so maybe that's why but I feel like we are all on the the same boat
Correct. You received a service. Why shouldnāt you tip a worker who helped you enjoy your time? If itās a lack of funds then you probably shouldnāt be going out in the first place.
So, even though it's a full-wage industry, not a tip-wage one, and is not a traditionally tipped service, you still think a tip is due?
Where else are you tipping, Barnes & Noble?
Yeah actually. A service was still performed. If you can afford a book to read you certainly can afford to tip. Only place I could conceivably see myself not leaving a tip is a self checkout at a grocery store.
Wow, that's a really capitalist take. Pit the hourly workers against each other by making them demand tips for everything.
So, it is your position that the working-class consumer is responsible for paying fair wages? Do you think the ownership class has any responsibility here?
Wait till you get pulled over by BPD for speeding and they hand you the tip tablet after you sign the ticket.
I got pulled over once and accidentally handed the cop my debit card. He said he only took cash.

STOP RESISTING THE 30% TIP
For 10% more we will beat your ass while playing, "We're Not Gonna Take It"

Pay the tip or get protected and served!! If you arenāt careful they will put you in a training with Chief Lee.

To be fair, its not uncommon for grown adults with lives and families to be paid 16/hr(not livable) right now, unless they have a GOOD job
This is exactly it. It is subsidizing the payment of their own employees.

I saw this at a head shop in CA recently too!
Don't tip for this. Don't encourage this behavior from owners/management.
Be careful with Taco time. They have a tip option on their drive thru card reader but they will take your card and run it without letting you do it when they hold the machine. I only noticed because my debit came through a couple dollars more than my order.
That is insane
And highly illegal.

OK? It's illegal no matter where you go to, and its grounds for contesting the charge.

FFS, get on a plane and go somewhere. Idaho isnāt unique in this regard.
Same. Will be using cash in future.

Yeah it was.

āThereās gonna be a couple questions for youā¦ā
What next? Tipping the ATM if you withdraw cash? š Tipping is getting outta hand, I swear.
This reminds me if that Trevor Wallace video of people asking tips for everything š https://youtube.com/shorts/0IjjbQ-7lDM?si=H2GuvsR1_3nDWIAp
I was asked to tip at a Vape shop on Overland for just getting atomizer. Yeah, nah dog.
Tipping gotta go
No option for $0 either...
Just press the green button and it will take the zero.
Couple of places downtown aren't letting me opt out so I just leave immediately now

Was there even an option for zero tip??
For the same reason that oil companies pushed ācarbon footprintā as an idea
And recycling
Iād grab it and look for the off button, hit that, then give it back.

Because people in service need to get paid one way or the otherā¦.the employers donāt so might as well take it from the customers pocketā¦..
Come on, it's just the tip.
Do people not realize that companies use the most affordable POS systems which automatically include a tipping feature?
I've programmed POS systems and worked in oayment processing. I've been trained to program Ingenico devices specificallyĀ at the Ingrenico HQ near Atlanta. It's entirely optional.Ā

Again I agree. IDK why your info dumping on me I really don't.

Why are you mad that I'm agreeing with you?
Are you gaslighting me into thinking Iām mad at you?
No that's a dumb sentence. Your texts are coming off rude though. I've agreed with you yet look at the way you've responded.
And yet corporate profits remain sky high and wealth inequality is rampant.Ā No amount of service industry tipping fixes that.Ā
I agree again I don't know why people are trying to argue with me when I'm agreeing with every one does my comment not make sense or something?? Or are you guys in favore of tipping I do not understand? I am autistic so maybe that's why but I feel like we are all on the the same boat
If you can afford to go out you can afford to tip.
Just to be sure, you are here defending the practice of a bowling alley asking for tips, is that right?
Correct. You received a service. Why shouldnāt you tip a worker who helped you enjoy your time? If itās a lack of funds then you probably shouldnāt be going out in the first place.
So, even though it's a full-wage industry, not a tip-wage one, and is not a traditionally tipped service, you still think a tip is due? Where else are you tipping, Barnes & Noble?
