Tipping in general is a concept that should just die. Same actually as bonuses. I work at a rather large company where sales closing a deal will get them a bonus. In my job I don't directly deal with customers, so I can never get a bonus. U don't work less hard than sales. I would actually say my job is more stressful. They should just pay people what they're worth.

I once worked in a European office of a big US company a while back where I negotiated a fair salary, they agreed, and then on the first day the contract arrived and fully 25% of it was a "bonus target" that I was assured everyone always got every time so I shouldn't worry about it.
Inevitably, it was the first thing to go as soon as a new CEO came in with the task of improving Earnings Per Share, giving me an instant 25% pay cut. What's shittier is they announced it after the period it applied to, so it was a retroactive 25% pay cut as well. Luckily I wanted to leave anyway for other reasons, so I took them to a tribunal and got paid, cause you can't pull that sort of shit in Europe. My US colleagues didn't fare so well.
A very similar thing happened to me a while back. Mine was "only" a 10% pay cut but it was extremely demotivating.
Of course, since I was in the US I had no such thing as a tribunal
Bonuses are also used to not have to give a raise.
Don't see it as sales getting more than they're worth, see it as them getting less than they're worth the rest of the year. If you still think that's too much, fight for your wage and fight together.
The workers only cribble themselves if they fight eachother. We should all strive to get our rightful piece of the cake.
oh please can we stop them after I get this year bonus? I work at a large company and everyone gets a little bonus. I really need my pitty bonus this year! please Im not a ceo, just a regular poor person
When I moved from the US to NZ I got way superior service then I'd ever had in the US and attempted tipping a "por boir" but they refused it and said if I really felt like giving extra they had a charity I could give to.
Unfortunately I have started seeing tips being asked for by POS in Sydney and Auckland and it made me mad and sad.
I went to a restaurant in Arrowtown yesterday and the POS asked for a tip. I've seen it a couple other places too but usually the worker hits no before giving it to me.
Say it with your vote and with your political involvement. Fucking over employees who depend on tips when you're able to tip is shitty. They already don't get paid enough, they don't need your reminders.
Leave a tip and also some documentation on how to start a union
You want a tip, here's your tip: seize the means of production.
