If you are from the United States, you have probably been a tipping customer at a restaurant. If you are not from the United States, you might not have heard of this custom. I don’t really like the fact that when I go to a sit-down, order-your-food-at-the-table restaurant, I am expected to cover the waiter’s paycheck. This might just be me speaking as a broke college student, but I find it ridiculous how these restaurants already charge quite a bit, but they can’t seem to pay their employees a living wage. They put that burden on their customers. I don’t go to these types of places that often; I would rather pop into Chipotle or Jimmy Johns-both restaurants where you pay at the counter and where you aren’t expected to pay a tip. I am just flustered by this custom of American culture. I think that everyone should be paid a living wage, and no one should have to rely on the luck that comes with a tipped position. There will always be those people who tip generously, but there will also be the people who don’t care, or are broke-which is another topic all its own.
