    I’m not for tipping culture, but realistically they’re usually doing better than people making minimum wage without tips.

    Here in Canada they get minimum wage plus tips. So… yeah, wow.

    I guess Americans are ok with subsidizing employee wages on behalf of companies.

      State to State here, but generally they are not legally required to pay minimum wage. Honestly neither make much sense to me, but that’s tipping culture for ya
