[–] fx242@lemmy.world 1 point 1 month ago (1 child) It's not only about confusion for me, it feels wrong and uncenessary abusive. This shit is illegal on most of the first world for a reason! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] daychilde@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago So basically the history of tipping comes from post-slavery times. When frankly whites were trying to keep blacks down. It has a terrible history, a terrible purpose. They were trying to not have to pay people who deserved a living wage. So while I'm not certain, I think the practice should be strictly illegal, it certainly is bullshit. So I have a hard time disagreeing with you LOL permalink fedilink source parent
