[quote=Anonymous]I will reduce tips accordingly as wages increase. The math is simple. Before, servers were what? Making $2-3 per hour? Let's say it's a $100 bill. I will be generous and assume a server only serves my table for 1h. They would be compensated $23 for waiting on my table for that hour (20% tip + hourly wage paid by the house). That $23 compensation won't change for me. If they now get $16/h wage, I will tip $7 so they they'll once again get $23 total from my table. It makes zero sense to tip $20 while they earn $16/h. Their compensation will have ballooned from $23 for the table to $36. That's a 56% increase. Nope. Just gross inflation. [/quote]
