Since the pandemic a lot more people don't leave any tip at all regardless of service. So those who do tip are pressured to compensate more for all the other people.
It started before the pandemic and in places where tips were never before requested. So it's even worse, the inundation of new tipping demands made it less appealing to tip in the first place, before any social paradigm shifts came into play.
Because they started paying back of house and support staff shit and skimming a portion of sales off servers. I pay 6.5% of sales to a tip pool to the rest of the non tipped staff so they can keep paying them minimum wage. Nothing like paying money out of your pocked for the pleasure of serving a table

I still don't get why we moved up from a 15% standard here.
Feels like a psyop to distract us, because Being percentile It already scaled up with inflation.
