    My wife worked as a server for a while, so it is ingrained in our brains to automatically tip, even though it is morally detestable that the companies make tipping required for their workers’ survival.

      That’s why I like point #2. My husband works at a grocery store, and he’s more successful if he sells product that the store has too much of. I was always more successful being honest about the shady shit that happens at every restaurant. The restaurants are skimping on pay, but because of that, server loyalty lies more with the customer.
