That's not how the world works and you know that. You think the industry has it wrong don't empower it with your dollars.
It's exactly how it works the employees are allowing it. You can look at this history of labor rights and see you can take it up with them we've just seen this with Amazon and are continuing to see it.

Because if the employer/industry continues to profit they have no need to change how it runs. And no, you cannot go to a restaurant and go in the kitchen for your own food.

It was a rhetorical question.

You enter into an agreement with the employer. It is there responsibility to ensure that your food is cooked as advertised and served in a timely manner. They hire waiters and a chef to meet that obligation.

As a customer, I don't enter into an agreement with the waiter. The person the waiter entered into an agreement with is their employer. It is between the employer and waiter to work on a relationship that works out. Perhaps stipulate that they will not serve unless a tip is paid up front or included in the bill as a flat fee or percentage.

No... that's not why you tip.

That's why that person should go find a different job!

People have been getting better jobs for decades. Billions of people.. Whats going on in 2021, where looking for better is considered "boot strap" talk?

Jessica is a server. Jessica works diligently as a server until she finds a better job. She did what you told her to do, congrats to her!

Do you know what happens next? Samantha comes in and takes the job opening as a server that Jessica left. No problem was resolved here. Only simple minded people with linear thinking assume that finding a better job alleviates this problem.

Stop looking for excuses, while you’re looking for that excuse keep lookin for another dollar in your pocket to add to that tip broke boi

That's one company. You're talking about an entire industry.

You don't have to enter an agreement with a company to understand that if you continue lacing their pockets they aren't changing their business model. If you think the business model has it wrong, don't empower the business(es).

Even you have no clue about what you posted.. Shyts been this way for decades.. And as long as people keep signing up for these jobs, then the cycle will continue..

So instead of making idiotic diatribes with no substance, figure out why this cycle continues on.. Because I find it hard to believe people will continually sign up to make $9 for 70hrs of work.

I do have a clue about what I posted, but you saying I don’t is a good way to avoid the fact that you have no response to what I said :mjlol: You only call it a diatribe because I used a couple words you aren’t used to seeing :ld:


The cycle continues on because there are millions of ‘cheap labor’ jobs in this economy. Are you really stupid enough to believe that one day all cheap job workers magically go to college and white-collar their problems away?

You tell them to work hard and find a better job, even when they do that, somebody comes behind them and takes that same shytty job. Acting like that cycle doesn’t exist is just you being willfully ignorant.
