On: What DoorDash pays, after expenses, and what’s hap...

See it’s the “service good” category that I don’t think will exist. Why would people tip when tipping is no longer socially mandated?

Where people seem to disagree here is with the idea that service workers are better off with low wages + tipping than higher wages + no tipping.

That's how it typically works where i live. servers share the tips and split the haul.

I don't know what social dynamics caused this, if it is a fluke or expected behaviour. So no way for me to predict how Americans would react.

In the UK wait staff are tipped based on service and are still paid at least minimum wage.

Tipping is generally based on the quality of the establishment, you tip at a higher class restaurant but you don't at restaurants that are franchised or common brands.
