Go to the govt? Really? In Japan there is no tipping culture, in fact a tip is seen as an insult. Do you really think that has anything to do with their government? Well maybe the exception is that the US allows this BS by not having a decent minimum wage for any job.
Second you completely ignore parts of my response, so if you need to tip the full amount, why is is fair to tip lower at a cheaper restaurant? These people work just as hard.
But let’s go even deeper, you say I’m selfish because these people provide a service? So what? My mailman provides a service, the roadworker that fixed the road I use every day provides a service? Why is tipping even a thing? I need to pay extra for someone doing the job they got hired for?
Wow! I can’t even get into this since you are in Japan and never would understand, even if you wanted to, we can switch lives for a month then you can understand how fucked up the US is with providing for their citizens.
But you would know the most since US fucked your country over the with your surprise attack on Pearl Harbor then we “A bombed” you, (don’t agree) but you out of everyone should know how fucked up America truly is…
Also, PUBLIC SERVIANTS are state owned workers with benefits and pensions… servers have NOTHING of the sort… but I also give them a Christmas gift because I feel bad, but legit get paid more than me so again, not the same! They have state benefits and pensions, we relay on people to be GREAT people to tip for service. If you don’t want that service go thru McDonald’s and fuck off!
I’m not from Japan, I’m from Europe. I understand how fucked up the US is for regular hard working people. That is why those people should be paid a living wage, not depend on the kindness of people tipping. This entire system needs to be replaced, and it can start from either the government or people refusing to tip. If people stop tipping wages are going up, or restaurants basically can’t find people willing to do it anymore.
