Hey at least it's transparent since anyone can check the wallet address. So you don't need to wait for me to post a confirmation (https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/addresses/btc/bc1qtg5zxzuact47zvsaguns97swn4w3u8qatchgzl). More transparency than we're getting in this discussion from "career wait staff" who likely get way more than minimum wages and still get tied up in knots that people don't pay enough in tips (rather than demanding better pay from their bosses). I wonder if these people would be okay making their tips publicly known at the time that people leave the tip... eg, on the check it tells you how much tips your server collected for the night so far and on average for a given pay period). I mean, if it's being left to me to pay someone's wages, I should have a right to know how much they've collected right?

But seriously. I don't need the money. I do well enough for myself and have no-one but myself to blame if I don't take home enough money for my family in a given pay period. I generated the address to prove a silly point.

I'm not saying you need the money, just that he should give it to you as he would expect you to do for him if the situation was the other way around.

He won't though. Leeches like that only take from others.

Saying this while demanding a sub-minimum wage worker send money to someone who presumably has permanent access to healthcare due to military service (and also admits they are paid well) is peak internet.

who presumably has permanent access to healthcare due to military service

This would only be true if I hold 100% disability. For any other percentage I could only use VA healthcare for service related disabilities. And this all assumes I hold a disability at all.

I'm well paid, because I worked hard to start my company and gain the contracts I have.

Interesting, the rules must be different depending on circumstance because my grandpa had zero issues getting VA care with no disability. This was post WWII though so it wouldn’t surprise me if they stopped giving out healthcare once the US stopped winning wars.

Regardless of your healthcare status, demanding a minimum wage worker give you a tip for your service is absolutely deranged. Especially when the food service worker is actually providing a useful service and not just enforcing imperialism.

So then you're talking on topics that you have no information about... and expect anyone to take you seriously?

Demanding tips is deranged from the get go.

[-] Saik0Shinigami@lemmy.saik0.com 0 points 8 months ago

Yeah I suspected that was your intent. But can't always attribute tone to text. I'm just trying to prove the point and I think you get it spot on. Demanding tips from or hating/resenting your customers because they choose not to tip you is just nasty behavior when they should ultimately be mad at the person who hires/pays them. This behavior that this lemmite espouse here in the attempt to justify tipping is exactly why I don't like tipping at all.

The military thing is in the same vein, everyone always claims that the military members don't get enough for what they do... So when you put tipping in that context to... Where's mine? That logic fails outright... and everyone knows it. So why keep it floating for wait staff?
