MODERATORS
They don't have to work there.
They do, their alternatives are being homeless, or working at another company that's very likely managed the exact same way.
The lack of a social safety net or sufficient welfare, empowers exploitative labour conditions.
So they don't.
Are you advocating for no more servers? Or are you suggesting that only the desperate should do the job? Or is your point that someone who chooses to be victimized by society should simply accept their rung on the ladder?
Restaurants are the backstop for a lot of people that have nowhere else to work. They aren't worried about a spotty background check, they won't run a drug screening, they just care that you show up on time.
