I'm supporting the restaurant by eating there, and paying menu prices for food. If they need me to pay more, they can raise their menu prices. I'm not going to guess how much things actually cost.

spot on. I've had enough of tipping. I have gone out to eat and anywhere i get service so much less this past year, but it has been worth it. I've saved money and sparked interesting conversations with people in my circle when I bring tipping up. this is a weird hill for me to die on, but I do not care anymore.

how about a discount from the restaurant because I was polite to my servers and was not a disruptive customer? no, because that doesnt make any sense lol

tipping has creeped its way into everything and has turned us against each other for a batshit insane concept that should have never been normalized.

if they want more money, charge more money. this guilt trip at the end of the bil they force upon me at the end of my meal is just so insane. they're just asking me to give them more money for no reason, full stop.
