That’s good. I do think this is why they’re trying to normalize the practice though, I wouldn’t be surprised 1 bit if one day every corporate fast food restaurant in tandem “happened” to decide that they’re paying their regular employees tipped wages.

Bad idea. If you get enough tips they can start paying you as if you’re a tipped wage employee, shooting your pay down to like 2.13 an hour + tips federally in the US. States have different allowances that can be higher than that, but most don’t. You only need to be making 30 dollars a month in tips for your employer to legally start paying you as a tipped wage employee.

I wonder if it wouldn’t be wise to try and emulate some of the easier/more participatable subreddits here. Askreddit theads for instance are a big pull (even if they tend to be. well, redditors post on them use your imagination).
