This is the truth. If you want the industry to change, don't go to restaurants who do the tipping model. If you go to these places and don't tip in some misguided attempt to change things, guess what. The owner just felt zero difference. They got paid 100% what they were expecting. It's the waitstaff who just felt it. So why would the restaurant owner, the guy with the power to change things and not notable for giving a shit about their staff, care about your protest at all? Assuming they notice which they aren't going to.
The only way to actually mount financial pressure on these places is to not go to them.
Of course, I assume most people who claim to be not tipping as some form of protest against the system just want to take advantage of the lower prices allowable by the lowered wage that waitstaff receive while claiming to be doing it for some higher purpose.
[edit] And the controversial nature of this blatant reality proves my point. People understand the nature of the system and want to abuse a service worker to their benefit while claiming to be doing so from some sort of moral high ground. You're lying. To yourself, to the rest of us, you are full of shit. If you actually believed in changing the system you would do as I say and not participate in businesses that use it.
Nah, I hate tipping because of the fact that it is on a percentage.
I just order to go, food quality is a little lower than straight from the kitchen, the company is better though
