Guess who no longer cares about you dining experience. permalink fedilink source hideshow 14 child comments replies: [–] mudstickmcgee@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 years ago "My boss pays me fairly so I'm going to suck ekstra at my job" what a great take permalink fedilink source parent [–] SuddenlyMelissa@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 2 years ago (1 child) Millions of people do good work on a flat wage. If you need to be bribed to care at all about people, get out of the service industry. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Jennykichu@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Imagine this guy at a strip club "You expect a bribe simply to view your buttocks madam?

If you've ever been to Europe, the service is good but not anywhere as attentive like in the states. The problem is not greedy waiters taking tips, it's the CEOs who don't pay their employees enough to dine out more than once a year. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] bufalo1973@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) In some countries in Europe (Spain, Portugal, ...) tips are just a bonus, not their wage. It's a thank you but with money. So if you tip them you reinforce their good behavior. If the tip is mandatory it stops being a thank you and becomes charity. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Jennykichu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 child) That's not what charity means, they're quite literally performing a service for that money. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] laurelraven@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago It's corporate charity since you're paying the wages their employer should be paying permalink fedilink source parent [–] archomrade@midwest.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) Idk what experiences you've had but i've had nothing but downright pleasant service in Europe.
