Have you ever bought something in-game for real money just because you wanted to support the devs?

Tipping shouldn't even be real because the people should just be paid a real wage. And yeah, you can make fucking bank on tips if you live in some shithole like NYC where every dumb fucker will tip you (and also because city prices are fucking highway robbery); but that isn't the point. Tips shouldn't be real because their wages are pure shit sometimes far below the minimum wage.
Kill yourself commie
Still not tipping.
Bought the "The 80's Suitcase" in Dead by Daylight, when they were still a small team supported by a publisher. It was a couple of recolored textures for a few bucks. Also the first few crate drops in TF2 because I still considered Valve as an "friendly, independent studio" who cares about their users lol. Back then Valve was like Epic today, giving away free games, updates, and having generous sales.
Restaurants are able to offer much cheaper meal prices because they're not paying for "real labor" from the servers. If everyone didn't tip, the servers would make nothing, then restaurants would be forced to pay them all min. wage and the meal prices would go up far more than you would've ever had to tip.
Tipping is exactly the same as donating to e-whores except there's not even a chance you will see her tits.
Americans are mentally ill.
Honestly the one thing I miss about deleting my FB account was seeing posts/groups like these.
>minimum wage exists
>women flock to the jobs that don't follow it
this. people who don't tip are morons who don't realize this.
They always tell you the prices will skyrocket, but here in WA it's REQUIRED to pay waitstaff at least minimum wage regardless of tips. The cocksuckers still ask for 20%+ and the prices are no different than anywhere else. You're being scammed.
This, so much this! That's why restaurants outside of America never prosper.
how about they take in just the tip of my cock
>Back then Valve was like Epic today
top lel, comparing a chinese owned company to a developer who went digital with a store first time anyone ever did.
youre such a delusional bootlicker it disgusts me.
Never said anything about them prospering or not, but the consumer is paying more than if they had tipped.
see this straight from reddit post from your typical waitslave who perpetuates the lie their owner's peddle.
I hate having to fly to America every time I feel like eating at a restaurant.
I've personally seen this happen at a restaurant where the servers got tipped then it switched to wage only, the prices fucking skyrocketed. Never went there again and last I checked they're not doing well.
So that's why Rome collapsed.
If you giving good service is based on recieving a tip, then you don't actually deserve a tip.
why are americans like this?
wait. let me get this right
restaurants have low prices because they dont pay a living wage
so you have to pay tips which are expected which MAKES THE FOOD MORE EXPENSIVE since youre still paying for food + tip
only ones that actually win here are restaurants that can attract clients with SEEMINGLY lower prices when in reality THEYRE MORE EXPENSIVE
WTF
mcds and kfc wagies dont get tips but you dont see them bitching about it lmao
America is so fucking stupid. Tips are supposed to be a recognition of good service, not a standard affair.
Just pay them minimum wage. I'd rather deal with a higher priced meal than feeling like I'm forced to tip some beamer.
exactly. see
Upvoted
I cook my meals at home.
lmao ok boomer
The $3 tip you would put on is not more expensive than how pricey the food is if all servers are paid a real wage.
works just fine here in Washington, cuck.
Retard.
lmao imagine supporting the tipping system
t. american who lives abroad
>I took your order and delivered it, I deserve a tip
>No, of course I didn't prepare the meal
>No, of course I didn't cook the meal
>No, of course I'm not slaving away in a cramped hot kitchen or washing the dishes
>I deserve a tip for doing 1% of the work to get you your meal
Tips are for Bartenders who know how to mix drinks well and food truck owners who cook your food.
Fuck you for expecting more because you willingly chose to work a job that doesn't pay more.
If I am being honest and upfront about not tipping, then the waiter should be honest and forthcoming about spitting in my meal as well
Because jewish restaurant owners don't pay their staff enough to afford basic rent, so they make customers pay their wage instead like good goys.
min wage =/= living wage
well in the US at least
and most waiters get below min wage unless tipped
They don't do that. They would be immediately fired at almost all restaurants besides bottom of the barrel trash.
What kind of country gives visa to some worthless American?
>buy shit at the supermarket
>cashier gives me total
>asks for tip
>dont give tip
>next week the prices doubled
better tip goyim
Don't they split tips with kitchen staff at a lot of places?
wait, how would that even work?
if the server can live on me giving him 3 bucks for the meal im still paying 3 more bucks for the meal. Its just the restaurant shoving the 3 bucks cost of service ONTO ME
its literally just the restaurant making me pay for the worker without it looking like it
Fuck off Americans don't you have riots to be preparing for?
Everywhere else it's exactly the other way around. You're only supposed tip if the service and food received was good.
this
Muttland is a backwards shithole.
/Thread.
Tipping brainwashing is designed to blame poor working conditions and miserable salaries of service workers onto customers instead of companies which employ them in the first place.
Almost all places do "tip out", sharing the tips among most staff. Really a % of the tips should go to all staff besides managers if the servers make a lot. Leads to much higher retainability on employees.
>support the devs
>tipping waiters
What's next? Paying for games?
honestly none worth your while. either get a working holiday visa and meet a qt citizen in a year or know them ahead of time and move to live with them
sorry user, i know that's prob not the answer you want to hear, best of luck tho
Flawless fucking logic.
Can other industries get in on this I make more money if I pay my staff under minimum wage bandwagon?
You're not understanding. I have *personally experienced* prices skyrocket after a restaurant decided to move to wage only. So that piddly $3 tip is nothing in comparison to every meal and drink now being higher price, sometimes far more than just $3.
living wage =/= "yes, of course I'm buying this year's iphone, why wouldn't I?"
Just because you live beyond your means doesn't mean that minimum wage isn't enough to survive.
brb starting a car dealership where you need to tip my shills
Most likely, yep.
You will never get a real salary.
McDonald's shitlord. Neck yourself
Sounds fabricated and homosexual. They absolutely can add auto gratuity to a party of 64.
Yes. I've done this twice and both games went to shit soon after I did it. Never again.
>getting paid for your work is communism
but its doesnt even make sense.
if its the difference of 3 bucks per meal that makes the server have a decent wage and the restaurant having low prices it should be possible for the restaurant just to raise the price of the meal by 3 dollars and give it to the server.
if the prices skyrocket its just greed of the owner and not logical
Just admit you hate poor people.
NOOOOO NOT MY HECKIN' DOLLARIDOOS
>*personally experienced*
just stop buying there and go back to rêddit
Pay your fucking workers.
>on noes, my food was 8 dollars more expensive than the 3$ I normallly tip so these poor waiters can afford their rent
fuck off jew
>I refuse to do my job probably unless you bribe me
>but its you that is a cheap piece of shit
>NOOOO MUH ANECDOTE he cries, while continuing to ignore the entire state of Washington that's been brought up multiple times
seethe kike
>Back then Valve was like Epic today
Valve would only have been like Epic if Source was used as much as Unreal Engine
But it's very logical, the hourly pay he's paying the waitstaff, which there tend to be a lot of on at once, astronomically jumps once he pays them a real wage. His hourly labor cost would go up (just for the servers) from $20ish-$30ish to $70ish-$140ish.
min wage is literally impossible to live on unless you have some outside support like living with family
truth
We, all of us, are morally obligated to financially reward the Chili's waiter that wrote this who thinks the font mashup aesthetic of a Facebook ad t-shirt would be a compelling way to enshrine their argument.
I personally like paying more for my meals, makes me feel fancy, fuck tipping.
>end up paying a high price anyway
>you just pay the server directly instead of it being factored into the meal
it's a bullshit excuse.
Yes, in Team Fortress 2.
Sank hundreds of hours into the game. Despite being free, the game doesn't lock anything behind a paywall. All unlockable weapons are sidegrades rather than upgrades and incredibly easy to unlock without paying. The only thing you pay for is cosmetics, and they are generally very goofy and well-made too.
If there was ever a game that deserved me to willingly give it money, it is this one.
I hope you're only eating for one, it's the only way your argument makes sense here.
Personally I LOVE tipping because it gives me the option of paying less by not doing it
Just raise the price. Eliminate tipping as socially mandatory. I don't even tip my masseuse and she does a better job than any waitstaff.
literally any other country. Americans are like gods on earth. Cry yourself to sleep lol
>leave a piece of chicken wings on the table
there's your fucking tip nigger ahahahahaha
This. You pay the same amount or more as a 15% tipper for food, and the service is worse because they have to hire less staff.
Tipping exists for a reason, and the people that work tip jobs actually fight to keep tipping.
>NO NO YOU CAN'T NOT TIP ME, I'LL DUNK MY BALLS IN YOUR SOUP, I'LL SPIT IN YOUR FRIES, I'LL CARRY AROUND YOUR STEAK WITH MY THUMB ON IT
Well now I'm definitely never tipping. Never negotiate with terrorists.
I tip. But ONLY my fedora to some classy ladies and refined gentlemen who #respectwomen like me!
Anyone who tells you this has legitimately never stepped outside of the US and you shouldn't pay attention to them because they're objectively wrong
The price of tipping would get passed into the price of food and wouldn't be more in total than tipping. To think otherwise is fucking stupid and nonsensical. Fucking servers generally make MORE than the minimum wage under the tipping system (just inconsistently), hence low income workers in the service industry kinda support it. If they're making MORE than minimum wage, then as a percentage of the price you pay, you are paying for their salary to be MORE than minimum wage. If the business has to pay them AT minimum wage and the cost of this is passed onto the food, then you're generally paying LESS or AS MUCH as you did under a tipping system
Honestly stupid
Yeah, in the UK there's a campaign for a "Living Wage" which apparently factors in actual living costs.
get ready for the second coming of Weimar
There is no correlation between living costs and business operating costs
Enjoy record unemployment by financially fucking the wrong people
I once fucked the waitress from a local pub after a continuous tipping spree. She was a 6/10 looking pre-milf with dirty nails and foetid perfume.
I don't regret it.
yeah but fuck the "gratuity system" I have no obligation as a consumer to offset the wages you've lost as a result of your shitty boss deciding that your service in his establishment is worth less than fucking minimum wage. if you want to be mad at someone, be mad at policy makers who allow this sort of thing to take place, and be mad at your employer for deciding that his profit margins are more important than your wages.
Could never pay me to go to the UK, they have that white genocide painting under the Eiffel Tower. Shit's creepy as fuck.
I wonder how that will affect everything forcing the min wage to be a living wage
I always pay with card, imagine carrying cash around in 2020 lmao
I never tip and use the money I """"should have"""" tipped to roll on chinese gatcha games.
>in the current TF2 economy one unlockable weapon is literally 1/4th of a cent
But hey, at least buds went back up... to 3.5 keys
>implying the 2nd lockdown isn't gonna cause that anyway
>UK
>Eiffel Tower
No that's actually not a condition.
