Why isnt starbucks paying them a wage that doesnt demand a tip? whynot the call center tech? why not the cashier at walmart? why not the guy who signs you in at jiffy lube? why not the janitor at the local mall? why are some jobs more deserving of tips than others?

That’s sort of where I’m coming from in a sense. If everyone is being paid a minimum wage (which is 10.50 where I am, but people generally make 15-25 for “entry level” jobs here), why should I be paying extra for specific services?
It really made me stop going and giving them my money in the first place, which is sort of a lose lose for both of us if you don’t consider my fiscal responsibility a win.

In Montana that’s not allowed. It’s possible they don’t make much more than minimum wage, but they can’t earn less than 10.55. Like I said, in coffee shops it’s 15 and up, which is what I make as a teacher
