It would be nice if tipping was just gone, and everybody got paid a living wage, like in most of the rest of the world. We’re in a Nash equilibrium right now where if you don’t tip, you’re an asshole. Other people might even tip more if they hear about it, which reinforces the status quo. So I keep tipping well, and disliking that we’re stuck here.

How can we end tipping culture and just have everyone be paid a living wage?

    You shouldn’t be going out to eat where servers are paid with tips then.

    You’re engaging in a system that exploits the worker then further exploit the worker to prove a point.

    Kinda (very much so) a dick move
