Shortly before opening, Casa Bonita’s new owners Matt Stone and Trey Parker decided to eliminate tipping and instead pay workers a flat wage of $30 per hour.

Now I could be wrong, but getting a an hourly wage as a restaurant worker is FAR better than relying on tips. I feel like either workers in this situation are too obsessed with tips or there’s huge context missing.

some tipped workers come out ahead in effective wage, but it's fleeting and a bad way to organize society

i wouldn't put it past the park brothers to be screwing them over in some other way and the "return to tipping" is just sensationalized from the old benefits being better and "we want the previous deal" being easier to argue for as labor.
