And I’m not defending the practice of tipping. I hate tipping. But what I hate even more are smug people who think it’s so easy to get rid of tipping. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] spirinolas@lemmy.world 1 point 1 month ago When one mentions "the west" it means the western world, not "west of the Atlantic".
