I believe it doesn’t. I go to expensive restaurants and bars mostly where waiters and bartenders get way overpaid due to tipping. If it has any impact, it will help smaller waiters/bartenders that do not work in busy places and suffer from their employers not paying them a normal wage.

A lot of us are already doing this. I get weird looks all the time, or people will get upset if we’re in a group. A few times waiters actually got upset and asked me why I wasn’t tipping. It’s hard but by principle I’ll still refuse to tip. I wish there was a subreddit community. Maybe r/notip ?

No we are not comfortable with tipping. Many people like me do not tip even though we get weird looks or the occasional angry waiter.

A bunch of restaurants actually include the tip in prices, there are lists online and you can encourage this practice by eating out there.

IMO you can also encourage this practice by not tipping.

This. The only way I can see things changing is to not tip. I know this will anger some people here but I just ordered on grubhub and tipped 0$. Why would I tip more if I already pay 6$ of delivery fee? Also, why would I tip a percentage in general? Can’t a waiter appreciate my 5$ tip without making a face every time like I’ve under tipped them?

If you think this is outrageous, you should consider that many people are like me and waiters get stiffed all the time by us. So every time you’re paying a tip you’re covering for me too. Isn’t this unfair?
