i dont understand this whole concept. i'm not only talking about restaurants, i'm talking about any place we go where you pay first for whatever product or service you're getting, then on top of what you just paid for, you also have to pay tip to whoever served/helped you. don't get me wrong, anytime i go to a restaurant, i pay at least 15% min, usually 20%, whether the service was good or not.
let's say i go to bennigans, i order food and the bill is $100. then i pay another $20 for tip to pay the server who is employed BY bennigans. i just spend $100 to bennigans and now i have to spend antoher $20 to pay for their employee? i don't understand why bennigans only pays them $2/hr and then the customer is pretty much responsible for deciding whether they have a good day or not. the whole tipping concept doesn't make sense to me.
same thing as hair salon, i pay $20 for a haircut, then i have to tip her $4. why doesn't the employer just pay them with the $20 i just paid.
