If everyone stopped tipping workers, all workers would quit for not being payed enough. Restaurant's would need to either make the base pay larger or shut down.

Since when is it my responsibility to ensure that businesses in the city survive off of my hard earned money? Nowhere in my job duties does it state that I need to keep downtown and its businesses alive. ​ Might as well just take a chunk out of my paycheck and give it to the downtown parking lots and businesses and let me continue being remote.

I walked to Starbucks after going grocery shopping and set my shopping bags down too hard. I accidentally cracked a bottle of really smelly vinegar… or cheese… or can of fermented fish (surströmming) and the entire store cleared out. The entire work staff walked out at the same time.
