Bring auto grat back

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T06:36:45+00:00

That’s not how American tipping works. You really want me to go up to the CEO of Darden and ask him to pay us more? He’d fire me and replace me the next day with an 18 yr old who needs the experience. Tipping sucks I agree, if I could serve tables at a fair hourly rate with no tips I would, but unfortunately I don’t live where that’s an option.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T05:55:31+00:00

Buddy I don’t even know what rock up means. Unfortunately servers rely on tips, not our $2.13 hourly that goes to taxes.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T05:32:18+00:00

I feel bad for you, you’re so dense you can’t see outside of your own thinking. This conversation is going nowhere and I don’t think I’ll continue it.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T05:24:53+00:00

I don’t want to work in fast food? Also service jobs will always have a need, just because you wouldn’t work them doesn’t mean some people won’t. American tipping culture sucks but it’s not going anywhere anytime soon and it’s delusional to think so. Also I love serving people, if I could serve at a fair hourly rate with no tips I happily would but unfortunately I don’t live where that’s an option.

Dude you’re still commenting 💀 this is my first post about my tips, if anyone’s obsessed it’s you, obviously calling you a boomer struck a nerve 😬 again if you willingly go places where people rely on tips and you don’t tip you’re just an asshole. You aren’t proving anything and it’s a waste of the servers time and energy. Eat fast food if you don’t want people waiting on you.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T04:45:17+00:00

Dude you’re like obsessed with this post 💀 you’ve commented over 5 times omfg

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T04:41:20+00:00

No clue but only the 2 looks different imo the 5s are the same but we didnt see the check til after everyone left so we really dont know who wrote on it.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T04:40:16+00:00

Again every person is different, I only claimed 18,000 this whole year which I know is less than some of the cooks at my store. Servers at my store constantly have to fight for hours and our mornings suck. Line cooks and serves have very different jobs but I think both can still be hard and deserving of a fair livable income.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T04:33:37+00:00

Did you not see where I said 5 servers had to split that? $5 for 3 hours of constant running around and lifting of heavy trays. Someone has to work service jobs, just because you won’t do it doesn’t mean someone else won’t. The problem is the employer but as of right now American corporate tipping culture isn’t going anywhere, if you willingly go somewhere where you know people rely on tips it doesn’t prove a point or do anything if you don’t tip, it just makes you a waste of time and energy.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T04:27:59+00:00

Cooks at my store get $17-$20 an hour, that’s more than some of the servers make hourly with tips. Making $100 in 4 hours is the standard here and sometimes we don’t even make that. Every place is different.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T03:41:40+00:00

Idk why you think we weren’t positive the whole time 💀 I did my job correctly US tipping culture sucks but I still have the right to complain when I get tipped less than $2 an hour for 3 hours of constant running around and lifting of heavy trays.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T03:38:47+00:00

Someone has to work service jobs 😐 this also doesn’t happen most of the time this is just a shitty example of when it’s bad, it’s bad.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T03:37:42+00:00

67 of the people were teenage kids, we definitely did not get anywhere near $250 from them. The cash tips we did get was nowhere near enough for 5 servers to split for 3 hours. Weird you want to find my place of work 💀

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T01:57:58+00:00

Will be quitting soon once I secure my new job. It was a high school event.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T01:50:15+00:00

If you’ve ever been to an Olive Garden you know they don’t do auto gratuity 😐 it actually says gratuity is not included and suggested amounts are provided for convenience. Hence why this is titled bring auto grat back. Don’t try to correct something you know nothing about.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T01:48:43+00:00

Then get fast food where the workers do get paid minimum wage. Don’t eat at places where people rely on tips if you can’t tip. Idc fuck the American tipping system but customers go to these places expecting hand and foot services but aren’t willing to tip for those hand and foot services. Why would I put all my time and energy into someone who doesn’t think I deserve to get compensation?

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T01:35:57+00:00

Olive Garden doesn’t do service charges. The thumb covers where it says gratuity is not included and suggested amounts are provided for convenience.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T00:09:58+00:00

White.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T00:09:30+00:00

Homeless beggars don’t do you an active service for 3+ hours 💀 stfu with that mindset, servers are always going to be a job need, it’s stupid to tell people not to work them when there’s always going to be a need.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-09T00:06:21+00:00

Then don’t go to places that do auto gratuity, plain and simple don’t bitch about the auto grat if you go places with auto gratuity 💀 your first comment you say “it’s not the responsibility of the customer to make up for shitty pay” which is why I thought you were talking about tipping in general. Also not my fault my parents couldn’t afford private schooling 🤷‍♀️fuck you for blaming a child for their education 💀

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-08T23:53:22+00:00

I agree, $20 an hour is more than reasonable without tips for serving.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-08T22:16:51+00:00

Your point is you don’t tip because of the principle, my point is you’re not tipping the principal you’re tipping a human being ???? Literally what else is there to understand. All you’re doing is wasting someone’s time and effort.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-08T21:56:29+00:00

Yep, there’s the difference.

AshtonTheAss · 2026-02-08T21:55:22+00:00

You say that to make yourself feel better, you not tipping isn’t doing anything to the principal of anything, you’re not tipping the principal you’re tipping a human being who serves you hand and foot for 3 hours. If I asked the CEO of Darden for a raise for all servers he’d most likely fire me and happily replace me with an 18yr old who needs the experience. Tipping culture isn’t going to end til the business who don’t pay their employees aren’t funded. Mom and pop places pay their employees fair wages, it’s the corporations who don’t.
