It doesn't have to be like this, America. Not only is tipping not expected in Australia, but when the "Choose tip" screen comes up on US made software, all the servers I've ever had skip straight through it and choose zero.

Servers deserve to be paid fairly.

US corpo parasite is attempting to export this shite so they can charge their parasite fee on higher gross amount...

Pathetic

This would get an immediate Custom -> 0% from me the moment I see it.

Fucking "soso" for a 20% tip the hell

[–] cley_faye 14 points 6 days ago

As a dev I would try negative value in the custom field.

[–] Theonetheycall1845 13 points 6 days ago

There's no 20 it's 30%!! Insane.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 days ago

If this is in a restaurant after I've eaten, it would get 0% and I'd never go there again.
If this is presented to me somewhere you pay before consuming your food/purchase, I'm leaving without paying.

They know there's soft, weak people like me that find it painful because the guy in front of you can see it. I mean, I'm a good principled person and I've still done it, but I felt like trash in the process.

I guess it was just a matter of time before other classes than the bottom one figured out aggressive panhandling.

but I felt like trash in the process.

This is why I have stopped dining out, if the business demands excess to then pay staff and without tips staff go unpaid then what is it I am supporting.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

I award you no tips, and may God have mercy on your soul!

[–] hOrni 12 points 6 days ago

30% is "soso" but a 100% is only "Thank You"? In this case the 100% should be "Walk over to the other side of the register so the boss can blow You".

I don't mind paying for the convenience. I tip well. I do wish we lived in a country where living wages were a thing. But we don't. We're a giant slave colony owned by like 5 megacorps.

My question here is, how much was the bill? 5 or $600?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

95, lol, the percentages are there on the screen

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 days ago

Yep. Sure is. Hopefully that makes my blonde moment quota for a few days.

[–] lazyViking 4 points 6 days ago

If you look at the screenshot you can see the bill is $95

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

So hard to get a thank you. Manners these days...
