Service charges; resort fees; "surcharge" add-ons: A new state law requiring price transparency is set to take effect in July. Until now, no one knew how it would apply to restaurants.
Need this nationwide. I hate having fees added on to the price of what I’m ordering.
Don’t take the downvotes too seriously. Your original point was succinct and poignant. On average, lemmy bombs on anyone going against the popular stance. A whole lot of paper activism goes on here.
Your point is valid. Not tipping because “fuck the man” only serves to hurt the servers. From a moral consumer standpoint, there’s no winning. You either cut out restaurants entirely, which still fucks the wait staff, or you tip high and hope enough of it ends up in the their pockets.
I’m not offended by downvotes, but usually if I’m downvoted there are comments that correlate so I can understand the alternative perspective. Most of the comments in response were servers at first, so I edited for clarity thinking it was a misunderstanding. It took several comments for me to learn that California pays their servers a decent minimum wage.

I’m downvoting because he’s wrong about servers getting paid below minimum wage in California. That’s true in his shithole state but not ours.
