    Americans be like; “If you can’t afford to pay 69% tip then don’t go out eating at all”

      If you’re going to say “69%” , you need to call it eating out, not out eating.

      Also, complaining that things will cost too much if waiters eek by on more than minimum wage.

        The cost is literally the same… Restaurants would just be upfront about it then.

          That would be upsetting to the business owners, though. You know - the Job Creators.

            If I’m directly responsible for their salary, then they’re working for me. I created that job.

          You assume the restaurant’s prices are connected to wages in any meaningful way. We’re paying the wages. That’s all food cost and profit.

        Eek! They eke out a living on so little!

      I gotta say, complaining about being on the verge of a recession while going out for a $70 meal really puts my poverty into perspective.

      If all I had to do was 69 my waiter, I’d be eating out a lot more
