    Only because the business class here have successfully convinced the working class that it is they who should instead bear the responsibility to make up for the fact that the business owners don’t have to (and therefore don’t) pay their employees a living wage.

    That’s the reason people that have worked as waiters tip well.

    I imagine they would also be the ones who would vote for legislation forcing restaurants to no longer be allowed to pay any of their employees two bucks an hour or whatever.

    In Japan, tipping is not part of the culture because they pay you a living wage for working… and it’s just expected for you to give excellent service as part of the job itself.

    And, again, like with janitorial duties, kids rotate to work as cafeteria staff workers in Japanese schools as well.
