https://www.restaurantbusinessonline.com/workforce/casa-bonita-workers-demand-return-tipping#:~:text=Shortly%20before%20opening%2C%20Casa%20Bonita's,wage%20of%20%2430%20per%20hour.

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.

You are right, I read several comments in the thread stating the back-of-house wasn't being included and just assumed they were right. I've deleted the comments and have now read the article. Tipping is still an anti-labor practice that employers love.

Ayyy, no worries and I appreciate you acknowledging the mistake stalin-heart I don't really know enough about the issue to have a very strong opinion on it, I was mainly just annoyed that so few people in the thread seemed to have read the thing they were responding to, but I'm also guilty of that quite often on here! Do you know of anything I can read to get better informed?
