    I’m one of the suckers who always tips, but I also worry that those tips aren’t actually getting to the workers. I would much prefer a system that just pays them a living wage!

      when i’m that worried about the tips getting to the right hands, i tip in cash. its a small inconvenience to carry some cash but then i know its going into the employee’s hand. might just be a placebo, but what else can i do lol

      If it’s one of those systems, it’s probably connected to the payroll/accounting system and tips are routed automatically.
