    I mean, a whole festival of non tippers filling up my restaurant for god knows how long taking up all the space for would-be tippers? Yeah.

    “How overdrawn and pedantic to claim the parking lot will be a mess because of one unreturned cart” “how overdrawn and pedantic to think Yellowstone will be hurt by me taking just one thing” if everyone thought like you and all of it piles up, yes. It’s cumulative, but you play your part.

    Oil prices? Oil companies. Not your server at fucking Denny’s. Not even your average American tourist. Oil prices are your culture? Where do you live Qatar?

    Who is costing thousands to budget over here with no blaim

    Either this needs context or there’s a translation error, sorry, no clue what you’re referencing. Whatever it is probably also isn’t your server at Denny’s or your average tourist, either, though.

    Malice or stupidity, it matters not, your server at Denny’s didn’t do shit to you but bring you pancakes, go spite yourself.

      I fixed that one sentence, you are correct that was a bit… Vague. I got upset.

      My point remains, it is absolutely American to claim not tipping to be immoral.

      I would like to point out that it is immoral to blame guests to your country for following laws. Fix your stupid hellhole of a country don’t blame us for stiffing you on a tip.

      These people are spending thousands upon thousands, and will probably have a little bit of spite especially in Texas. Because you know what? Fuck you all right back. America number 1, Europoors no good.

        Europoors eh?

        Rich waiters I guess then?

        How much are tickets to these games?

        If they can afford the flight, hotel, and tickets, they’re all doing better than the struggling waitstaff just trying to scrape by to the end of the month without going further into debt.

        Eurotrash more like it, they have money just no class.

          Point was you can’t have it both ways

          You can’t always shit on us then expect us to give a shit about your problems

          Figure it out and get your country sorted instead of blaming people for not giving you free money

            And you know the individual server is “always shitting on europeans” how exactly? I mean they might now after being stiffed by so many they had to add a European surcharge, but I mean before they deserved it.

            Oh you don’t, it’s just more “America bad” like always? Figures. As if Europeans don’t spend way too much time and energy hating Americans constantly just on lemmy alone much less everywhere else. This is laughable.

              No it’s not america bad like always but right now fuck yeah when you greedy bastards claim it’s wrong for a guest in your country with literal culture and societal differences to not know tipping is such a big deal

              that’s your problem not theirs

              From the article:

              “*There’s been a lot of tables that have come in and had a tab of almost $700,” Daggett said.

              She says most visitors aren’t being rude — they really don’t know how things work here.

              “They do ask,” she said. “They say, ‘Oh, how do I do this?” I explain to them that tipping is big here in the city, and it’s a nice habit to do.*”

              Just look at that phrasing a nice habit eh, giving away money in random amounts yes please more yes

              Anything to not admit it’s a fucked system

              You think we don’t know some servers prefer the system for the simple reason that they get paid loads depending on the location

              Fuck outta here with the whining

              Add gratuity to the charges but dont complain people aren’t giving enough money away to the worst allies of the century

                Hell yeah I’ll keep that attitude next time I go abroad, not my problem to learn your customs it’s your problem dealing with Americans, sucks to suck I guess, get America’d on.

                Just look at that phrasing a nice habit eh,

                The “please don’t fire me boss I need to feed my children” phrasing? Yeah, ask her off record (if whoever quoted that is a server, if they’re the owner, there’s your answer.)

                I agree, add 35%.

                  See that’s where we are definitely ahead

                  If you ignore our customs you would have nobody whining about it online or articles written about you. We will either correct or arrest depending on how far against logic you’ve been acting.

                  We wouldn’t have this situation where we could go “oh no you are starving my people” because we actually have a working democracy

                  Besides, to be fair, Americans don’t travel here anyway. Not working class ones. Too poor. We just get yuppies

                    Well that’s just outright false. If it happened en masse there likely would be articles and people do whine all the time online about it.
