he right though, no ones forcing you to take that job. It really ain't that hard, work smarter not harderWhatever. People want to be able to brag about how they made $300 off 4 hrs of "work" at Buffalo Wild Wings on a Friday, same time you are going to have people who aren't impressed that you bought an order that you didn't cook from the kitchen to the table and refilled a drink a couple of times. Same way you could inductively call someone who doesn't think tipping makes any sense cheap, I could point out that your job (not you in particular but angry waiters and doormen) involves you carrying plates from point a to point b, and refilling drinks from a fountain, and therefore you must not be very smart. My niece is 3 and I can tell her to go to the fridge and get me a soda and put it in the glass and figure it out. Some people should be happy in America that we have Labor Laws, otherwise they could and would easily be replaced by adolescents. I see it all the time when I travel out of the country, or in "family owned" Oriental spots, the youngest son/daughter taking orders and refilling drinks. It's simple ****.
I think you deserve minimum wage, which they get because their employer is legally obligated to make up for it in the event they don't get enough tips to close the gap between the ~$2.00 an hr and minimum wage.
****** arrangement, that you voluntarily signed up for. Cry me a river
Only stupid people lacking any real marketable skill take jobs making sub minimum wage doing mundane tasks then cry about it that people aren't dropping on hands and knees in praise for their door opening, glass filling service and making it rain in their direction.
And then what is the justification for the + minimum wage making people who have their hands out and tisk and breathe all hard if you don't tip them like valet, shuttle car/bus service, postmen, doormen, barbers/stylists, baristas at coffee shops, the bag checker at the airport, everybody. Just keep your wallet out. Everyone "deserves" a tip under the guise of "service," which frankly applies to most jobs.
