I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.

    There’s a reason why no tipping restaurants end up failing and returning to tips.

    Yeah, we have 0 restaurants here in western Europe. It’s a bummer. Should have adopted tipping culture.

      As there is no culture of tipping there, potential employees don’t have the same opportunity.

      In North America, wait staff have two options. Restaurants where they work for tips and restaurants where they don’t. Logically, they’ll choose the ones that pay more, which are invariably the ones that work for tips.

      This is why European wait staff make an average of 12 euros and North American wait staff make vastly more.

      I don’t recall a recent meal where I haven’t tipped more than that, and the staff will have several tables.

        Wage overall are higher in the us, you can’t directly compare because you don’t have social srcurity, work security and number or other benefits.

        I never went to the us, but in canada where people tip there’s very few small restorants and they’re expensive in general. Compared to france, there’s no tipping and a shit ton of small restaurant where the food is easily 3x less than in canada.

        Also I think they were refering to the origins of tipping culture in the us, which was a way to continue slavery by not paying a wage to the black workers.
