Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!

If only that cost could somehow be included in the price of the food and not reliant upon a voluntary donation from the customer as a % of the bill.

I agree with that, tips are bad for everything except management (in case they can use tips to pay less and look cheaper) and tax evasion I guess

Otherwise they're highly discriminatory and a bad customer experience

The expected tip should be included within the price so the workers are paid fairly by default. Tipping can still exist to show appreciation, but it needs to have a maximum. $1-2 per individual, or $5 combined. They should be extra in every sense of the word. I make sure to tip at least $0.50-$1.00 for perhaps a $2.50 drink at a local coffee shop because I absolutely love that place. I'm tipping to reflect that they're my favorite. That's what it should be like.
