How did waiters and waitresses come to be so entitled?

Okay weird story, I like it when a waiter or waitress says excellent choice after I place my order, so the last time I went out to eat I asked the waitress when she first sat me at my table to please say excellent choice when I place my order. She just gave me an odd look and walked away, and when she took my order she didn't fucking say it. So I left her no tip.

Bitch comes running up to me in the parking lot telling me I FORGOT to tip her, and I had to explain to her that I purposefully didn't tip because of the lousy unaccommodating service. Rude.

How did waiters and waitresses come to become so entitled as to feel they always deserve a tip?

>so entitled as to feel they always deserve a tip?

because you don't have a decent minimum wage so they rely on tips to get by?

> I like it when a waiter or waitress says excellent choice after I place my order,

OP confirmed for huge fag

In the purple ones, the point is moot.

I tip but I dont like to. They arent making the food, they rarely ever give any kind of warm service (alternatively they are annoying as hell by trying to be way too friendly/etc), they rarely ever do anything extraordinary of any kind.

They take my order, they put it in, they bring it out. Maybe if I call them over and get something else (like a refill) or just ask for the check. Then I pay and leave.

They didnt do a god damned thing. I could have done it all myself if I could put the order in at the kitchen window and then pick up my own food.

Restaurants should abolish tipping and just paid their damned employees a real wage.

here's a (you) I guess.

Must be their liberal arts graduate degrees

this cannot be real

>reddit spacing

Holy crap, thanks. Next time I go to Seattle I won't bother tipping. Also, nice trips.

>I could have cooked the food therefore I shouldn't have to pay for it

gas yourself

That just looks more appealing than a pseudo block of text without the space breaks. If you opt for the worse looking one just to not try to be reddit then you're just as bad

reddit spacing is adding a space after the quote line

Your dining experience does not include forcing your server to say things you like. You can pay a hooker for that, you freak.

um..

..no


This is Reddit spacing, retard.

Literally the only people that care about this shit are phoneposter era kids, desperately trying to assert themselves as more authentic.

In 2006 everyone posted like this.

Nobody cared.

>They arent making the food
it gets split with the cooks and bus staff.

Tips are welfare for mediocre restaurants. People won't mind paying a higher price for actual good food but if the mediocre places with a ton of crap from Sysco published prices on their menu that actually were high enough to cover minimum wage they would go out of business.

I think this is a good thing, but it would probably negatively affect a lot of places in middle America that are nearly all serving crap with little competition

Because service workers aren't your slaves you entitled suburban burger guzzling cunt

>phoneposters

Wow, it suddenly all makes sense! A long stretched out post wouldn't matter for anyone looking at a proper screen, but would need to be scrolled on a phone screen.

Hence the autistic sperging over something previously no one cared about.

do people really get aroused at this stuff? or is it some kind of campy humor for people who are so jaded by normal porno that they need weird meta commentary to keep them from getting bored while they jerk off?

there's an entire subforum for this stuff on the porno website I go to, I assume I'm missing something?

I don't understand, how would the end of sysco slop houses actually make middle america worse?

it's like those people who go durr durr $15 minimum wage would ruin america because mcdonalds can't "pay" people a substandard wage to serve up garbage and then let the government pick up the remainder of their living expenses

like, seriously people? do you actually understand what you're saying?

Its traditionally a job for young pretty girls who need a bit of extra income but don't have the time for a real job so you tell me

I remember when my hot cousin got a job waitressing at a middlebrow "fancy" joint and I felt confused by how angry I got thinking about her being on display for the titillation of hundreds of strange men

>It's my first week here

Which is why the food has a pricetag on it. They have already been paid for their service when I picked up the bill. If they want more money, they'll have to sing, dance, and suck my dick to justify it. There is almost never any reason to tip anyone.

>phoneposting is for le maga kek oldfags
jesus christ this place really has gone to shit

Muhammad must be really angry, that hot cousin is supposed to be your wife

Double spacing it's only ok once or twice in a massive y long post
If you do it

You come off

As a passive aggressiveness little bitch Wich is the average redditor

>omg da mooslims
don't kid yourself, most people on this website would convert to islam in a heartbeat if it meant being able to marry and fuck sisters/cousins/etc consequence-free

stop pretending ISIS is anything other than an incel/redpill/MRA support group for brown third worlders, you aren't a good person just because there's a functioning government getting between you and having a sex slave

>paragraphs are passive aggressive
shit like this makes it very difficult to have any empathy when I hear about youngsters who "for some reason" can't get decent jobs

>it's like those people who go durr durr $15 minimum wage would ruin america because mcdonalds can't "pay" people a substandard wage to serve up garbage and then let the government pick up the remainder of their living expenses
>like, seriously people? do you actually understand what you're saying?
Those people also want the government to stop covering the difference or giving out money at all, that basically mcdonalds workers should have only the money mcdonalds is giving them now, and if they want more they should get a second job.

When each paragraph is only a couple of wors long they are
But if you don't like it you know where you can go back to

It means being able to fuck sisters/cousins/wathever as long as you are not gay

why would anyone be gay when they can fuck their own sister? the only reason gay is appealing is that it's mildly transgressive. having babies with your sister is next level wrong, and therefore much more appealing than being a homo

When women started getting other jobs outside of kitchens.

Now some women make more then men, Which is fucking sad. Luckily I don't know any women that make more then me

You can go on grindr and find a guy near you and go fuck him.
Women want your money and they want to destroy your life.

>hurr durr my food waiter needs to suck my dick or else they shouldn't get to take the bus home
Kill yourself you spoiled, fat burger

I had almost the exact same thing happen to me about a year ago. I was wearing an M65 jacket and I discretely asked her to say thank you for your service after she brought the food. I didn't leave a tip and I'm not visiting that place ever again. Before anyone asks it's a matter of principle.

spacing out posts to make the board intentionally annoying falls under rule 3 trash outside /b/. don't forget to report thanks

Especially since minimum wage in the city of Seattle is $15 now and restaurants have all raised their prices to accommodate this.

Those are called paragraphs.

Entirely subjective.

false, there is a federal minimum wage that must be met if the server does not make enough tips to equal minimum wage for that hour

>waitresses come to be so entitled
>why does an occupation made up of women come off as entitled

WHAT A HUGE MYSTERY!

You clearly need to read. The dude clearly said that all they did was pick up and drop off the food and he could do the same.

He came for the food, the servers did not cook it, he feels the job does not merit special treatment.

Is not the point of having a job to have your employer give you money for thing such as the bus in exchange for work?

Like being Paid I mean.

Humiliation is a legit kink.

>Implying people are not paid for working

Grow up kid

>you don't have a decent minimum wage
Horseshit. Stop living beyond your means. You don't need a new fucking iPhone or a TV; you just want them.

>Veeky Forums was better before chanology
fix'd

>else they shouldn't get to take the bus home

That bit there seems to imply that the lack of tips would result in insufficient funds to function.

My question is that shouldn't a place of employment provide the funds needed for such things?

I bet you think poor people are spending all their money on $5 coffees too.

very loosely enforced, and good luck providing proof if you're a simp working at a diner to pay for your neet lifestyle

No. The function of a business is not to provide you a standard of living. Why would you think it is?

>eating at restaurants for any reason other than the experience
If you really can't cook better food yourself then order carry out and pick it up so there's no server

For an employee to work in a sustainable manner they require a sustainable wage.

Irrelevant but what a shitty subplot that was. Mad Men really lost its way there in the end.

i never really thought about it, you're right. i could easily cook better food than they serve at my favorite spots. but something about being waited on, chilling watching the game drinking pints in a social place, flirting with the waitress even if it's just because she knows you're a good tipper, all these things are part of the experience you can't get at home. i always tip good if my service is good, regardless of the food. but im no poorfag either, if i was it would be harder to add %20 to my bill

This may be a bait, but it makes me laugh knowing that people will take this seriously, so have a (you)

I don't mind tipping but i wish there was a way i could tip the cooks.

American wages are kept low, you get payed every few weeks or so. When I worked fast food sometimes I'd have to walk home if no one tipped that day. Most money goes to food and rent.

>sustainable wage

And yet they still show up at work, proving it is a sustainable wage

>Getting tipped at fast food

Wages are kept low. That is what Republicans get from illegal immigration. Democrats get more low iq voters

>low iq voters

>Facts are racist meme

It's normal paragraph spacing, retard. Reddit spacing is putting in extra line breaks, like two instead of one, or in between greentext lines.

WHY THE FUCK IS IT THE CUSTOMERS PROBLEM THAT WAITRESSES DONT GET PAID ENOUGH!? Why doesn't every employee of some business, DEMAND the customers to tip them? People seem to be okay with it when waitress do it? Why wouldnt they be with any other place?

It fucking boggles my mind how fine people are with mandatory tipping. Its a fucking oxymoron.

It's not my fault if you voluntarily choose to work for a shitty employer who pays you less than he legally has to. Maybe you should make smarter choices you fucking retard.

Would you also expect me to throw free money at you if you chose to work an under-the-table illegal job getting paid $3 an hour to sell drugs to kids?

If you won't lift a finger to report your criminal employer to the authorities like a responsible citizen, then I won't tip you.

Say that to my face fucker not online and see what happens

Wait wut?

bf thinks it's weird to tip 20% when they're averaging at least four table an hour. How much are they really taking home?

>I asked the waitress when she first sat me at my table to please say excellent choice when I place my order.
If pasta it's one i haven't seen before.
Would make good pasta because of the sheer oblivious autism.

Don't get paid, raise a fuss about it, get fired for "underperforming", get replaced immediately because it's unskilled work.

>caring
Just stop. I only tip when the hassle from the people I am with isn't worth the tip I pay. I at most pay 2 dollars a head when that happens.

>waitercucks
tipping is not a legal requirement in my country so I haven't tipped anyone in 15 years.

You're so fucking disposable it's not even funny, I hope automation replaces within the next decade.

Why can't they just moonlight as hookers like they do in yurop?

They get free handouts for doing their job. Of course they are going to get entitled.

In most places the employer must ensure they get minimum wage even if they don't get enough tips. However, they only need to pay up to the minimum wage. If the server gets more tips than minimum wage the employer only needs to pay a smaller amount. Regardless, the server gets mimimum wage or more no matter what happens.

This does not happen with self-employed servers. Those people work exclusively for tips and there's no employer. The person who owns/runs the establishment allows the self-employed server to serve the public. That usually happens in places that serve alcohol and want hot chicks to work as servers. It is cheaper all around for the business owner.

It is all moot. All of them get state minimum wage, but the employer only needs to reimburse them if they can't get up to minimum wage via tips.

>It is cheaper all around for the business owner.

So business owner decides to be a jew and make the customer pay their salary instead of, you know, the actual employer. Then, for whatever reason, servers are pissed at customers for not agreeing to this in the form of not tipping/small tip when they agreed to their current situation. Servers are retarded and business owners are jews, yet the customer gets shit for "being cheap and not tipping enough" which is entirely pants on head retarded.
