Agree it needs to die, but vigilante moves like this aren’t going to end it. You’re just shorting workers that are completely reliant on tipping. If you want to make a difference support businesses that don’t use tipping and more importantly support legislation to restrict tipping and enforce fare pay base wages.
Umm, so you have come up with a fancy reason why you think it’s ok for you to be a jerk?
So what? You’re still being a jerk. And as for your reasoning, no, you’re not helping bring about any change. The owner of a restaurant couldn’t care less - they’re still profiting, so your whole argument is complete bullshit.
If you’re expecting tipping culture to die while people still tip, you’re living in a fantasy-land. If people living off of tips start noticing they’re not making as much, they will start demanding more from their employers.
Tipping is a band-aid solution that needs to go away.
People who work on tips need to fight back against the exploitation. Right now, there are still too many of them who say things like “I make more with tips.” In which case, fine. They can “make more” without my tip.
Once the data shows that they can make more with proper wages instead of tips, then that’s what will happen. It’s already what happens in most places other than America.
You’ve been conditioned to parrot rhetoric that only exists to keep the status quo going as long as possible.
Maybe if enough people stop tipping, workers will go work at places where they’re paid enough so they don’t need tips to survive? Horrific for the poor until tips-to-survive ends tho.
Voting against parties that make laws propping up an economic system that rewards psychopathy and punishes ethical behavior, would be better.

Unfortunately, that’s what’s necessary in order for change to happen.
All businesses will do is look at the data, and if the data shows that tipping can supplement low wages then wages will not increase.

Jerk.
Yeah, no.

So don’t participate AT ALL. Otherwise, the capitalist still makes money, and as such, WILL NOT CHANGE.
Going to a restaurant and not tipping doesn’t do shit other than fuck over the employee. And it never will.
Get a clue.
Yeah, no.
