    OOP jokes, but I’ve went to one or two restaurants that tried to do that in the past. I deducted the pre-included tip from the optional tip, and then never went to those restaurants again

      This has big “ill pay $20 if it has free shipping, but won’t pay $15 + $5 shipping” energy.

      Id rather buy food from a restaurant that doesn’t need tipping and is more expensive because they pay their workers fair wage instead of a place where the workers feel like they have to do the food service equivalent of pan handling on the side of the street.

      They get paid the same. One is less dehumanizing.

      Leaving your wage up to a fickle customer is hell. Getting paid less because the cooks accidentally overcooked the customers steak so they felt like they werent “treated well” or some bs is ridiculous.

      (The bottom half of this rant isnt aimed at you, but at tipping in general)

        You both said the same thing. If tip is included in the price, then there is no need to tip additionally.
