Shit, you could even argue he deserves money more, since at least he is selling something
I am pretty sure that that 200 dollar table wasn't 200 dollar because of the waiter's wonderful sales technique
you'd be surprised! he sold them three bottles of wine, various upsells, etc

being good at waiting tables can dramatically increase your ticket size and your ppa, a little bit of menu knowledge and sales skills go a long fucking way
Is May 1st as labor day very internationally recognized? It seems hilariously backwards to me if that's the case, since the day was originally set up based on a Chicago tragey, but Chicago's own country doesn't actually recognize it.
It was proposed at a French Labor conference to memorialize the American tragedy, so that was kind of the point I guess

We don't have labour day
I always wondered when labour day was, actually
ever since I read a spider-man comic where Spidey made jokes about it to a villain who wore white
this argument never goes anywhere. the decent people will keep tipping and the other people will keep having their "reasons" why they don't
Yeah they are basically selfish and self-righteous and there is no reasoning with them. Their conscience is clear and they will continue to ruin the day of young working men and women trying to support themselves on unlivable wages. Just ignore them.

it used to be bigger here (norway), with workers going out to march, sing and celebrate on the first and the bourgeoisie on the 17th, which is constitution day
then the class divide faded and now it's mostly a day for unions and the far left, most people only come out on the 17th and the ones who do go on the 1st go both days
I guess the right wants to remove it as a red letter day and move that day off to the 8th, liberation day
To be honest, tipping those people isn't something I expressly don't do, it seems to be something that people, in my experience, just don't do. I can't think of any time someone I know tipped a bartender, for example. Maybe it's much more prevalent in the US.

yeah it's just cultural, i was wondering if it was waitstaff in particular or tipping in general
i tip anybody who's waiting on me or doing me a favor with a good attitude, especially if it's a place i want to come back to

Right
well
that makes tipping make more sense, i guess
over here, you don't tip bartenders or taxi drivers or hairdressers or whatever, at least in my experience

You always tip your bartender in the US, and I don't see why you wouldn't elsewhere.
You seriously expect the bartender to pay any attention to you when you're trying to order a second drink if you don't tip them?

Okay, so you can't make the argument that my buddy deserves it more
however, he didn't get anything else on top of his wage
and neither should a waiter

Commission is not the same as tipping, though

Correct. I have no idea where I was going with that, really. Your friend's plight just made it seem relevant.
Yeah they are basically selfish and self-righteous and there is no reasoning with them. Their conscience is clear and they will continue to ruin the day of young working men and women trying to support themselves on unlivable wages. Just ignore them.
I am pretty sure I am a decent person
do you tip anybody in service industries?
bartenders? taxi drivers? valets? baggage handlers? barbers?
Depends on the state. In Ohio its over the course of a pay period. At my restaurant a pay period is two weeks.

you take care of them and they take care of you
Right

yes
but if you get at least 2 tables and are not complete shit you will make WELL over minimum wage
in fact most waiters make more than chefs, even executive chefs depending on the place
it's kinda bullshit
Yes?
Always?
or seen anyone do it
and I have never had nor seen anyone have problems getting served again, either
win win
The second one is becoming more rare as bartending becomes a profession exclusively for women, though.
