    Wow! I can’t even get into this since you are in Japan and never would understand, even if you wanted to, we can switch lives for a month then you can understand how fucked up the US is with providing for their citizens.

    But you would know the most since US fucked your country over the with your surprise attack on Pearl Harbor then we “A bombed” you, (don’t agree) but you out of everyone should know how fucked up America truly is…

    Also, PUBLIC SERVIANTS are state owned workers with benefits and pensions… servers have NOTHING of the sort… but I also give them a Christmas gift because I feel bad, but legit get paid more than me so again, not the same! They have state benefits and pensions, we relay on people to be GREAT people to tip for service. If you don’t want that service go thru McDonald’s and fuck off!

      I’m not from Japan, I’m from Europe. I understand how fucked up the US is for regular hard working people. That is why those people should be paid a living wage, not depend on the kindness of people tipping. This entire system needs to be replaced, and it can start from either the government or people refusing to tip. If people stop tipping wages are going up, or restaurants basically can’t find people willing to do it anymore.

        You do realize that not tipping people will NOT help the problem but only hurt the people trying to work their asses off for tips and such… (you alone cannot change govt - you only hurt fellow citizens). But I agree we need to be paid more but note…

        I quit my teaching job to make 3X as much as a server with half the hours… that’s the fucked up problem in America!

        Also, how much we are taxes to see no change we threw tea in the ocean but we’re letting the current govt collect like 30+% of our wages as billionaires pay nothing their entire life… THATS THE PROBLEM!
