And yet people pay significantly more tipping than they would if prices just increased to cover actual wages. Tipped workers make a lot of fuckin money.
Tipped workers will still need that same income or you lose the tipped workers for worse workers (at best).
The price increase will need to be roughly the average percentage made in tips, at minimum.
What do you suppose that price increase would be, across the board?
Like 18-22%
Unlikely. Around 15% is the generally recommended tip, and many people don't tip even that. Plus basically no restaurant is going to pay them what they would used to earn in tips.
They will if they want employees. It's crazy to me people think servers would just work for free so you get a small discount lol
... For free? What? Who said work for free? What a fuckin leap you made there, man.
No, they don't, actually. Workers in other countries don't make nearly as much as tipped workers in the same job here, and they manage perfectly fine.
What happens in other countries is irrelevant. No one is going to accept the same job for less pay because people in France make dog shit money
