    Waiters are against it as they may get way more than if they were paid by the owner. Also they automatically get raises when menu prices increases.

    What blows my mind is that American do tip everywhere and also give cash to some workers at the end of the year (mail man, garbage man,… Etc).

      They’re not against it, and they don’t.

        If you are paid $15/h that is 20% of $75. Don’t you think that the clients you will serve will pay way more than that during an hour?
