> If people aren't willing to do the job for the hourly wage alone with no tips, raise the wage until they are.
Agree with the first part, but would rephrase this second part as:
If people aren't able to live off a minimum wage salary to do the job for the hourly with no tips, raise the minimum wage until they are.
This isn’t an issue people can solve on their own by changing jobs. It’s a systemic problem where the minimum wage has been stagnating for years, while the cost of living has been skyrocketing, and thus felt most by non-knowledge workers.
