    Also, does that mean the worker’s pay also scales along with the prices?

      An extra $0.25/hr during peak. Which of course is done by subtracting the $0.25/hr from the base and adding it back during peak.

          No, but that doesn’t stop corpos from putting the tip prompt in every goddamned pos transaction they can.
