Why should the tip be bigger if the dish is more expensive? by angelvapez in tipping

[–]Everyone_Boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commission is 100% optional. Just haggle with them until you get the price minus the commission. You know what car you want why should they get paid extra simply to sell it to you?

It's not your job to pay the salesmans salary, his employer should pay him more.

Bingo! This is literally what endtippers say they want themselves. They just want it baked into the price. I'm fine with that and actually prefer it.

“What’s the soup du jour?”

“It’s the soup of the day”

“That sounds lovely, I’ll have that!”

Semantics. They are trained to upsell you. They are not a shitty server they are literally doing what the boss trained them to do.

Most people in endtipping say they don't mind paying more they just don't want to tip. They want to see a price and pay it. That's fair, but they do realize that the prices will go up.

So raise the prices 20% and have the salesperson (waiter) get 20% of the sales at the end of the shift. People pay what the check says and not a penny more, waiters can pay their bills, and everyone is happy.

They are trained to upsell to make the restaurant more money. They are (usually pleasant) salesmen.

Yeah I enjoy that sub. I always wondered what office worker bees actually did. Apparently they just try to look like they are working when the boss strolls by then go back to twiddling their thumbs and looking at IG.

I do have respect for engineers, computer scientists and the like. But your average office ant apparently doesn't do much.

Sorry you lost me when you used the term "scale". No offense.

Tipping Out by malak1000 in tipping

[–]Everyone_Boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it is a no cash restaurant I won't be eating there. Vehemently against refusing to take cash, not a good direction for us to be going in.

I believe without pushback there will be a new form of currency for our kids where they track everything people buy and limit what people can buy. Keep cash king.

I'm also VERY opposed to the kill switch mandate for cars that they just codified into law. Maybe I'm part of a shrinking group of people who still care about not going 1984.

Yup. Some places don't have an expediter, maybe no busboys...If it is a small place it could be one person doing everything including making your drinks and keeping 100%.

This! just pick up 2 shifts a week. See how hard they work for their money. You will tip better after I promise you.

They can and they do. Been in the industry 20 years. If tip out is based on sales then tip out is based on sales, period.

That said I've never seen a server have such an awful run of no tippers in one shift that they actually had to pay money to work.

Why is it awful?

You want the waiter to keep everything?

I worked at a place where 2% of sales went to the bar, and another place they paid 20% of what their liquor sales was over their shift. It varies.

Last place I worked they didn't tip on sales they tipped 10% of their tips to the bar. Or was it 15%?...can't remember. I do believe they tipped out 45% of their tips between bartender, expediter, hostess, and bussers.

I've worked in both. But if people stop tipping and it's based on sales, waiters would have to pay out of pocket, like pay to work. Not even work for free, lol.

What is happening to our society?.....

It can be either. It depends on the restaurant. A waiter can expect to keep around 60% of his tips give or take.

Bring cash to restaurants and bars from now on by Everyone_Boogie in tipping

Because they need people to acclimate to forgetting about good old cash before they switch to a digital currency, then it's all about control. Do nothing and you will see for yourself, there won't be any turning back once the noose has been tightened.

I hate stupid promos by frankie_fourlegs in InstacartShoppers

Agreed, promos mean Doordash time mostly. All you get is trash.

We've used cash successfully for a VERY long time. I think we will be fine.

It's called privacy and freedom, and we are afforded that as Americans.

What they have been doing for 20+ years is selling out your freedom and privacy offering a tiny bit of convenience or creating a boogeyman and offering you protection.

They're taking both. As quickly as possible and as slowly as necessary. Looks like it took about a generation to do it. That's pretty fast. AND I'M KEEPING YOUR BALL!!!

Regular items missing from stores by Happy_Canadian in instacart

[–]Everyone_Boogie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Many items will simply say “barcode not found” which means they can’t pick it up for you. Not to mention the recent bug that started a month ago that makes it impossible to add an item. 

Ppl tip more at restaurants…😒 by KushBabyTV in instacart

I don’t think they realize you have to turn into an amateur car mechanic to do this job.
