Because the employees fight to keep themselves down and guilt us into helping keep them down. Look at how many people were fighting to make tips tax free instead of just paying people more.
Thats such a gross generalization. Does it happen? Yes totally, but the meme propagates a stereotype that the average (if not every) cafe worker is like this.
Thats my main issue with a meme like this, is that it normalizes mocking and belittling a class.
Would you for instance find it okay if we substituted “tips” for “change” and “barista” for “a homeless person”?
And yet the meme is mocking the worker not the employer 🤔
