trouble is that by tipping you are enforcing tipping culture, giving the employers an excuse to underpay. You can't win...
Tipping culture comes from minimum wage laws. Laws need to change before culture could change.
Yeah, but you can change that by going to the rare places that have a no tipping policy. Don't just refuse to tip servers knowing that that's the only way they get paid.
