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.

"spreadsheet workers" aren't PMC to begin with - the PMC refers to the stratum that manage flows of capital. people who write spreadsheets are paid bottom-barrel wages to track capital (in various forms) but they generally have no control over it.

Lol I didn't know these terms were so stringent. I thought somebody just made up spreadsheet workers, which could definitely include most pmc people I know based on the description alone.
