  People: “I am NOT paying my barista a tip for this, what do you MEAN they DEMAND a tip.”

  Meanwhile the Barista is being paid less than US$3 an hour because in America, you can be paid that and be expected to reach minimum wage through tips if you work food service. Want to end that? Demand that food service workers be paid minimum wage at the very least. Don’t want to do even that? Then stop getting fast food.

  • No, this will not raise the price of food in any meaningful way.
  • No, these are not all teens, the average age of a minimum wage worker is 40.
  • No, this will not raise the price of goods generally. Wages have remained stagnant and the price of goods have risen regardless.

    In my city they get paid 21/hr min wage iirc, and while lower elsewhere, barely anywhere uses federal min wage right?

      Tons of places still use the federal minimum wage. Thats how you get Mississippi.

      in my state it’s 17/20/25/27/38 i think but i’m not sure on the last two, it’s been a while. tips don’t enter into calculations at all toward your wages, they’re just separate.

    Not to take away from your point, but fast food workers get minimum wage, they’re not subject to the slave wages food service workers have to deal with. They get the moderately better minimum, rather than hoping tips makes it to minimum.

    That’s exactly right. Being against tipping as a concept is fine, but the idea that we can end tipping culture by refusing to tip is fundamentally accelerationist. “Surely if we torture the workers enough they’ll be forced to demand higher wages!”

      This is what I’ve done. I haven’t been out to eat since before the pandemic. I got used to making my meals at home.

      The logic of punishing our fellow victims of the system has always struck me as both misguided and cruel.

      Thank you for pointing it out!

    To be fair, I don’t think baristas get the ~$3 minimum wage. Not Starbucks workers at least.

    • flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I’m sorry, by if they work at Starbucks, they’re not baristas

    I’m not aware of anywhere that pays (or is even allowed to pay) baristas what waiters and bartenders get. There may be exceptions. This post seems to be about literally anyplace with a new POS having basically options for 20-30% tips, despite the person behind it making like $15 an hour (at least where I live). Fortunately, lately, I’ll have the person reach around and press the “no tip” button often enough, since it’s usually the least obvious option available.

    • CentipedeFarrier@piefed.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      $15/hr still isn’t a living wage in most places, just for the record. It’s better than server wages for sure, but it’s not stable-life-level income.

    We don’t allow this in WA for instance.

    Fast food isn’t a place that typically solicits tips or pays tip wages. Sit down restaurants with waiters and bar tenders are where this occurs.

    source

    • Passerby6497@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      You’d be surprised. I’ve seen tons of fast food/counter service places that have tips enabled on the POS. And I sure as shit am not tipping at any place that I have to get my food from the counter.

      I begrudgingly tip at ‘real’ food establishments, since I’m societally handcuffed to supporting worker wages in restaurants when I go there, but fuck literally every other establishment that asks for tips.

      And I really need to get it through one of my partners’ heads that we should not be tipping minimum wage places, the org most likely pockets most of not all of that and the workers don’t see shit.

  If they ask for tips it’s zero.

  Then I hope the barista is patient, because they’re gonna be waiting a long time …

  I once went to a fancy rooftop bar where I was asked to pay in full (with tip) up front for a cocktail. No idea how that place is still in business.

  source

  • python@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Honestly, I kinda prefer that in bars? Means you can just walk off and not worry about paying once you’re done.

    source

    • idiomaddict@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Plus, I’ll tip $1-2 for a fancy cocktail even if the service is crappy, because those take time to make, so I don’t really need to know what the service is like ahead of time unless it’s incredible. This sounds like it wasn’t though.

  I will tip for good service at a restaurant. I really try to do cash because it is common for management to steal all or a portion of the tips.

  I just had this discussion with my wife yesterday when I got a Subway sub for her. When I went to pay it asked for a percentage based tip. Keep in mind this sub was $16 where I live.

  I hate that corporations are underpaying their workers and trying to guilt you into giving them a tip which they then promptly steal.

  Ahh yes. The barista that personally selected and programmed their store’s POS system.

  Dog they just work there.

    Responded to a guy that deleted his comment so it’s not visible anymore. Making fun of the system itself, barrista has nothing to be blamed about

      That might’ve been the intention, but the text of the meme targets the barista, not their boss or the system itself.
