No Bammer Weed dropped a napalm bomb on this thread:wow. He broke down the hypocrisy of tipping culture so succinctly. It's sad how these companies not only managed to pass on their shyt to consumers, but convinced us that it's our moral responsibility to supplement the income of the workers THEY screw over with low wages
.
If you don't like being at the mercy of the whims of your customers, mobilize with some like minded folk and complain to these companies.Shaming the customers into tipping will only take you so far, because no matter what you do you can't mandate tipping; and while shaming might make a few more want to tip,it also creates a backlash and makes others less likely to tip just on moral grounds, or make other straight up refuse your services(something you may be fine with, but less customers means less demand for drives which makes your employment less secure). The bottom line is, is that the corporations have the most power to enact change and pay you more, alot more than the consumer at least, and your time may be better served barking up their tree instead of coming here to complain.
