Shortly before opening, Casa Bonita’s new owners Matt Stone and Trey Parker decided to eliminate tipping and instead pay workers a flat wage of $30 per hour.

Now I could be wrong, but getting a an hourly wage as a restaurant worker is FAR better than relying on tips. I feel like either workers in this situation are too obsessed with tips or there’s huge context missing.

It's just a dog shit way to handle employee compensation. Your one job as an employer is to manage your employees and pay them what you think they're "worth" in the labor marketplace. Do your fucking job.

It's like when Walmart started phasing out cashiers and forcing you to do self checkout in those dinky little kiosks. Why pay someone to do a job if you can get the customer to do it for free?
