Well… consider this. As long as people keep buying drugs, dealers will keep selling them. As long as people keep tipping, pay based on tipping will keep existing.
And when adult labor dries up, you see Chik-Fil-A running a “summer camp” that puts grade school kids to work without pay. And 11 states working to make more child labor legal. And states trimming unemployment to attempt to force people into these shit jobs after they quit them during pandemic years.
Disorganized protest is not going to cut it. Me not tipping a bartender does absolutely nothing against the intentional machine built and reinforced at local, state, and federal level over generations.
If someone wants to take a local boycott action, they should stop going to bars and restaurants with a tipping structure. Then the loss is felt by the bar. Otherwise, the patron is getting their food/drinks, the bar makes their money, and the only party hurt is the wait staff reliant on tips.
Don’t try to out “America’s labor system sucks” me. I live here.
Tips are stupid, but it’s the system we live in. Knowing that and going to a bar and not tipping hurts the bartender, not the bar.
