We're at the tipping point?
Out of all the comments here, this one seems best and on point with the meme.
Sweet.
I was thinking it was comms myself.
A different perspective:
I don't like the rather pushy assumption that "I should be tipped just because I'm here at my job" any more than the next person does, but . . . I stopped donating to charities when I became convinced that nearly all of them are frauds (with much or most of the money going to those who RUN the "charity") and some of them (Red Cross for a one example; the Clinton Foundation for another) are involved in child trafficking and other horrors -- or at least to harmful "progressive" BS.
A local church's food bank is one thing, but national charities are another.
Until that point, I had a hard and fast rule of not giving cash to the homeless, and I rarely tipped more than 15%.
Both of those things changed, partly because I didn't have any reason to send money to "charities" anymore and partly because the economy was tanking, and for the first time I was seeing people who had obviously just fallen from the middle class camping out in their vehicles or living on the street. Also, I knew that earning a living was harder than ever; prices of nearly everything are outpacing paychecks and that's if you can find a job -- not everyone can, given the zillions of small-business bankruptcies and layoffs at big corporations.
So I sometimes hand out money to people on the street (most of whom, in the small-town area near where I live, are not drug addicts pooping on the sidewalk -- something I've NEVER seen, btw, other than in photos) and I tip well -- extravagantly sometimes -- because I remember how hard it was for ME when I was young and working at crappy jobs -- despite the economy being MUCH better than it is now.
I don't expect this to last, but for now I'm fairly well off, and as long as I can afford to do this, I will.
I always tip in cash and give it directly to my server.
I pay every person to person transaction in cash. Screw the bankers.
Screw the bankers!
This is the way. Let THEM decide what to do with their tax filings.
tell them it's a gift, not a tip, and they won't have to claim it as income.
When I was a bartender in college I only claimed enough to equal out to whatever the minimum wage was at that time. The rest of it went toward rent and tuition.
I have been doing that lately as well.
Except a lot of restaurants require the waitresses to turn in the tips to the boss for redistribution.
I think you may have missed the point of the meme as have several other posters, IMO only. Do you tip the cashier at your grocery store? Do you tip the gal behind the glass who sells you a movie ticket? When I go to a fast food joint, which is rare, I don't expect to have to decline tipping them by having them hand me a screen after they run my card whereby I'm forced to do just that OR coerced into giving them a 20% tip for simply filling my order and handing me my sandwich. That's the point behind the meme. They aren't talking about not tipping a waitress or bartender. I tip generously, but I do so to folks who are serving me. This whole tipping nonsense has gotten out of hand.
I started my comment with:
and I thought that was clear, but to expand on it: the various ways the businesses and workers are pushing the assumption that NOT tipping is a faux pas is incredibly irritating to me. And no, I don't tip grocery (or other) clerks.
Do you go to the movie theater or grocery store and buy a single muffin? Have you ever seen a tip screen at either location?
I’ve been watching rich guys on the internet posting the equivalent of this meme since there was an internet, and they are always doing it as a “I’m just like you guys fellow struggling Americans” when in reality they have $1000 dollar suits, $500 haircuts, 3 homes, etc.
Dan Scavino Jr posting this is the equivalent of a robber baron flicking a nickel at the shoeshines forehead and telling him to get a real job.
Go to star bucks and buy a single muffin.
I've seen these tip screens in the most dumbest places where the "service provider" never asked for tips in the past. Plus now they start the tips at 20% and you have to hit custom to go lower. I can understand with inflation tips should be higher, but food is also higher. So I'm basically covering the restaurant owner for inflation and his workers for inflation. Meanwhile my wages at work are not increasing much, if at all.
I noticed they started doing this at my vape shop. Now I know for a fact those people don't make under minimum wage, so why do they need to be tipped for taking something off a shelf and ringing it up? I don't tip the grocery checkout lady for picking something up and ringing it up. There used to be a big tip jar up the road at the cleaners. I think she was collecting for her weight loss surgery if I'm being honest.
Well right it was obvious this was referring to a coffee shop, and if someone is walking into one of those and not expecting a tip screen then they may be an alien.
I'm more down with this being some super secret squirrel comms than another rich d-bag pinching a penny in the face of someone working a survival job, but the odds are on the latter.
That's very nice of you
Agree with you. I do the same even though I'm not 'fairly well off'... I figure as long as I'm not having to use credit cards for groceries, hand extra money out now cause don't know when money becomes irrelevant as economy crashes.
This word for word is me too. Same feelings.
Or this is comms. Israel does absolutely nothing for us but shitty tv, movies and politicians and were supposed to tip them billions?
I hope he's suggesting that we're at the tipping point. Perhaps on the edge of some sort of precipice.
Yes, and you aren't allowed to question it, ever.
Muffin = Nuclear blast/bomb
The percentages are pointing to the Q drops:
https://qalerts.app/?q=15%2C+10%2C+5
IIR there are other drops, but I don't know what to type to prompt the search.
Tip = tipping point / precipice
I think DSj is hinting at the fact we are at the precipice...
You know, that makes sense and look at how we all got carried away at what was so NOT the point! Sometimes I laugh at us, me included!
Kek
this tip thing is getting rediculus no matter what the service good or bad it is now expected...i ll be damed if i walk into a subway and leave a tip. WTF...it is sad that many of these waitresses depend on them for part of their salary....but many of these other folks are making the top buck in the industry and pan handling too....fuk that....i will tip according to the service provided....service sucked so did your tip ...............
Problem is that some joints pool tips. How is this fair when one waiter or waitress busts their ass and others are lazy feks.
If you work too hard in an environment like that you need to severely scale it back, contrary to the belief system of the 'ol 'Boomers who will tell you up and down that hard work is rewarded (I don't think it is, because cheaper worker > best worker when it comes to modern day business.) High turnaround is something business and corporations thrive on rather than despises.
absolutely
yep, agree 100% about tipping according to the service provided. i went into a steak house one day, where you choose what you want, tell the person at the register, before being seated, then pay, then sit down, they they serve you what you ordered.
one day at the register, they asked would you like to tip 15%, 18% or 20% tip right at the register, before i even got my my meal. i said no, absolutely NOT, do NOT add a tip BEFORE to my bill before i get my meal. i said what kind of incentive does that give the waiter to give you good service.
Not very good incentive to not spit in yout food though. Never piss off the restaurant staff before your food is on the table.
haha! i know, but i was so shocked and pissed that they asked me to give the tip before i even sat down to eat.
i am usually very respective of the wait staff, they have a hard enough job without having to wait on a bully. but the restaurant quit that practice at the register because the next time i went in, they didn't ask for tip up front.
and no, i don't regular that joint and was a while before i went back, so i'm hoping they didn't remember me??? but good point!!
Top of the muffin to you too!
$11 for 3 miniature street tacos. I got ripped off over 2 years ago and still haven't forgotten. Anyway, in 2023 dollars, that wouldn't really be getting ripped off anymore 'cuz it be "da new normal."
I can afford to tip, and I know people working those jobs are being paid starvation wages with the assumption they will receive tips to compensate. It’s a messed up system, but I remember when I had to work those jobs.
I’m not faulting anyone that doesn’t because the way things are not everyone can afford to just tip everyone everywhere. I bet this guy posting the meme can though.
That sounds mighty anti-capitalist of you. Why don't those wage earners just try harder, work more hours, maybe even get 4 jobs? (Sarcasm)
My question is, do those tips actually go to the workers or is it just laundering for management?
I think at some point businesses got lazy and so did POS programmers so now we have this flimsy cookie cutter product and there was no reason to remove the tipping option where it made no sense, because they are not even intellectually coherent to care anymore. I get it, I'm pretty beat down too. But not to the point where I'm completely mindless
if i pay for a meal with a CC, i always tip the wait staff with cash. i was told by a friend that was a waitress that if you tip with a CC, the management usually takes half and give wait staff half. so, i give cash directly to the waitress.
I chatted with my server on day and joked with her I'd not be giving her a tip. She kinda shrugged and said "You'll have to take that up with the owner". I surmised that the tips went to the owner and that person handed it out to the staff.
Yeah and they probably don't even do that. That's what I thought was happening
It certainly has me rethinking my tipping amount. Grrrr.. if it all went to the server I'd have no problem, but if a percent went to the owner, now that is a huge problem. That's like taking my money and not letting me do with it as I see fit.
Well 3% of your tip goes to bankers who have nothing at all to do with the business you're at. It adds up.
Mr Pink doesn't tip
"Tip" with kind, sincere words. Mention what you are thanking them for if applicable.
"Thank you for the kind service" always gets a genuinely grateful response.
Was at a place where the lowest tip was 18%. A burger spot.
I bought a couple of sandwiches, and up pops the tip thing on the screen. I just said "What for?" and then skipped it.
On the other hand, there is an independent baker in my town who makes great muffins, cinnamon rolls, and more. I know her supplies cost a fortune, and I don't think she charges enough, so I tip her pretty good. Plus we talk about what's really going on in the world. She's a hard worker.
Yup, gotta reign that in. Espescially when you gotta stand in line for it.
Is this IG? Twitter? Facebok?
Facebook. I feel like more people who need red pilled see him on facebook.
Does FB give the exact time it was posted?
I just looked. It's 12:09pm CST and it says "17 hours ago", I kid you not.
I always see 17 all the time too
Not an exact time. Says 16h ago.
