How many of the others are legally paid $2.13/hr by their employer and have been forced into depending on tips?

‘They have to meet minimum wage in tips or the employer pays it!’ Guess what happens to servers that are constantly making their boss pay them more?

If you want to act like someone in this equation is a jackass it’s the employer for not paying a living wage, not the employee who is dependent on tips from whoever is out eating at a restaurant.

This is so US-specific it hurts.

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

Ah yes, servers, generally being known as doing nothing and being very well compensated for it.

Yes, but servers don't get paid a livable wage without tips

[–] wowleak@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Because employers get away with it because people leave tips.

Because workers don't organize a general strike.

Which is why (the abysmal wages) tipping culture needs to stay in the US.

In fact, drop it from the US as well!

The only guy not getting paid a fair living wage is the server though.

i don't know, aren't some people on the fishing ships in international waters basically slaves?

[–] djsoren19@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

nah, at least in the US everyone in this image is getting grossly underpaid.

The only guy visibly to consumers not getting paid a fair living wage is the server though.

"Yes but" is a low-quality webcomic. We can do better.
