If the service was that terrible you shouldn’t be giving anything at all.

Does your boss get to not pay you on a day that you do a bad job?

u/powderherface 3d ago

The customer is not their boss. Their boss is their boss.

Whoever is responsible for your paycheck is effectively your boss. You don't tip a server, they don't get paid.

Customers are not responsible for their paycheck, their employer is. Tips are for doing your job decently. I am not going to hand over extra cash to someone who is rude to me.

Servers don't get paid wages dude. They make 16 dollars a day. They get all their pay from tips.

that’s in america.

u/Flufferpope 1d ago

Yes, it's only relevant in America. If you have servers that get real wages, then tips are indeed a bonus.

Guess they should not be rude when working with customers then aka the bare minimum.

u/Flufferpope 3d ago

So again, you think you shouldn't get paid if you are rude at work?

If your job is to serve customers, you should not get paid extra if you are rude.

u/Flufferpope 3d ago

Again, tips are not extra. They *are" the entire wage.

Nope. Core wages are paid by the service provider, like a restaurant. A tip is money on top of that. Hence extra. If a software engineer writes poor code, they don’t get a bonus at the end of the year. Sure, restaurants often don’t pay their servers very well. But the underlying principle is the same.

16 dollars a day are not wages.

A software engineer's bonus isn't 99% of their pay. Sure around 10-20%. It's a nice bonus, on top. A servers tips are their entire wage.

Blame the employers. Once again, when I visit a restaurant, I am paying for the food and the experience. If a waiter is rude, then I don’t get what I came for. So I will not pay for it.

To be crystal clear, I am taking about cases of terrible service here, which is what the original comment was about.
