    This is one of those American nonsense arguments I don’t mind getting into, lol. Just include it in the price if it’s not supposed to be a gratuity. Do y’all just get guilt tripped into paying the salary the employer should be paying every time? What a horrible aftertaste to what could’ve been a good experience. Is it gratuity or an added fee, “optional” but with imposed moral implications that apparently run deep in Burgerland? 🤔

      I think everyone in the USA would agree with you. “just tell me the price without any additional nonsense”

        Why don’t you just do it? You know, like every (or almost every) other country in the entire world?

      He doesn’t control their wage, but he does control the tip amount. Practicality beats purity unfortunately.
