I wonder what percentage of people working in restaurants are doing so under the table or ineligible for employment?

Precisely why servers fight tooth and nail to keep the tipping system. It ain't about a "fair wage": it's about greed.
Raise prices/wages and abolish tipping IMO.

"The thing is that, of course, there are totally different ways to think about these kinds of situations. In this traffic, all these vehicles stopped and idling in my way, it’s not impossible that some of these people in SUV’s have been in horrible auto accidents in the past, and now find driving so terrifying that their therapist has all but ordered them to get a huge, heavy SUV so they can feel safe enough to drive. Or that the Hummer that just cut me off is maybe being driven by a father whose little child is hurt or sick in the seat next to him, and he’s trying to get this kid to the hospital, and he’s in a bigger, more legitimate hurry than I am: it is actually I who am in HIS way."

I won't contribute to it. I'm not paying more for food and more for the person to hand it to me. I've just stopped eating out altogether for the most part.

The only thing stopping me from using that is we're on well water and I have no idea how bad that could end up

people here do drive way too aggressively. They are constantly tailgating and passing u if you leave more than a car length of distance. It is fine, just annoying to constantly brake for them or move over.
Also ppl driving way too fast in snow and rain

Yeah but the restaurants don’t always follow that, even if required by law

How about we pay them a livable wage and do away with tipping? My European friends love it

They’re not. It’s made up in tips and if tips don’t make up for it, the restaurant is required to pay them additionally up to minimum wage.

I'm gonna be honest...15-20 bucks for a burger is what I'm paying anyways.
Edit: Out of curiosity I looked up Red fuckin Robin. Burgers range from $13 - $17. The average is $15 and change.

I agree with whatever the waitresses or waiters want. So long as they understand that this will effect tip culture. My sister is working at Chilis and does very well tip wise, well over hourly minimum wage.

It is a flea and tick collar that is good for 6-8 months. You can find it with a Google search. It repels ticks on top of killing them. Vet said it is safe to use in combination with most oral and topical flea and tick meds as long as your dog hasn’t exhibited adverse reactions to most other preventatives. We’ve been really impressed with how well it works keeping ticks off the dogs. It isn’t 100%, but it is far better than when we used Simparica alone.
