    There’s a long tail of servers/bartenders who are against this as well because they work at expensive establishments and make bank off tips. Like high double digits an hour.

    If the push to convert tips into wages ever becomes serious, conservative media will do its best to platform and promote these servers who stand to lose income off it. We gotta think of a rhetoric/messaging strategy to counter that.

      They’ll still get tips, they’ll just get a higher base pay as well. Why would they be against that?

        Propaganda and disinformation. It worked for Door Dash.
