Yes, because once companies aren’t forced to pay a minimum wage, they will surely start paying more than minimum wage. Who knew it’s been the law keeping people poor all this time.

My post was prompted by a culture shock moment. When I asked for an application for a front of house pizza place job, they said it paid 1/2 minimum wage. I then asked what was the average tip take home after shift. Was told depends on the server. No TY!

And I agree completely, tipping culture pisses me off, companies who refuse to compensate their employees while shoving that responsibility on to the customers are the problem. The suggestion to just eliminate minimum wage was what I replied to.

We are same page. Tippping culture has benefited me, but it's too volatile. End of day, it's an antiquated delivery system that is not dependable
