[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 years ago* (1 child) that helps subsidize the staff wages Allegedly But If that's the reality, I feel no need to add a tip. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 1 point 2 years ago* They probably pay $1/hr over minimum tipped wages. About $0.75 of that $17.22 fee goes to paying that increased wage, and the rest is pocketed. If they wanted to subsidize worker wages, they would include a mandatory gratuity rather than a service fee. Gratuities are passed directly to workers. This is truly scummy behavior. permalink fedilink source parent
