The unusual world of tipping.

in busy •  6 years ago 

Coming from South Africa and having worked in the restaurant industry there I came to hate people who didn't tip. Most restaurants in South Africa don't pay wages not even a basic minimum wage and they almost always used the tips that waitstaff get as an excuse not to pay a wage. Everyone I worked with back then did their best to make money for the restaurant but a lot of the time it was in vein. It's all really sad.

It can definitely be a sad situation. I think people just don't understand that we don't get paid a basic wage.
