    Tipping as a social obligation when eating at dine in restaurants which in turn allows the waiter to be paid less by the employer and theoretically lowers menu prices.

      The Asshole Subsidy. Extra money is taken from the people who are kind enough to worry about the waiter getting paid, effectively giving assholes who choose not to tip a discount.

      Yeah, but many servers make serious bank. You won’t find those people bitching about tips. Worked IT at a payroll firm, frequently saw the numbers.
