at a lot of places tips are split between front and back of house and those tips are based on the price of the meal, not the “tip” that was given. This results in many servers losing money and having to pay coworkers out of their own pocket on big groups or expensive bills that either don’t tip at all or only tip something like 10%.

I’m not advocating for this system at all, I just wanted to share some more info on how/why tipping works the way it does (in the US at least).

average sh.itjust.works user, most of em are petulant chronically online kids who think being a contrarian is the epitome of trolling
