I recently went to a restaurant and looked at my bill; I'm being told that I must subsidize the wages of the kitchen staff with a 3% tax on the total bill. Then the restaurant charges a meals tax on top of this kitchen tip which is probably not authorized under state law. Interestingly enough, the kitchen staff gets 3% for things they didn't do like pour beverages.

To me, this is nothing but virtue signaling. This pisses me off. They could simply raise the menu prices 3% and then pay their staff more.

I don't eat at restaurants. I stopped eating out well before the plandemic and they can fuck right off now too. Overpriced garbage food with shit service and expecting the customer to pay the wages of their employees on top of the meal. No thanks

This is how every single business works. Who else pays for wages besides customers?

For how much they charge for food and drink they should be able to pay their employees. Charging 40 dollars for a 10 dollar steak and 8 dollars for a 2 dollar beer? There are markups and then there's insanity. But then you have to pay a markup on their markups to pay their employees.

You can make better food at home for 300%+ lower cost
