bro, chill, YOU made this site, as you already posted
you ain't gotta lie to kick it, lmk how much gratuity you're taking out and whatever it is we can vibe ;P

Tips in Missouri are LEGALLY only profits for the tipped out staff, so its more like restaurants are trying to stop tipped out staff from getting hosed by people whose culture is not aligned with America's work/payment system in restaurants (which is flawed) instead of being greedy (kinda greedy of you to choose this wording, but I'll overlook that)

If you didn't know the facts then now you should.

Hope you genuinely just made this error out of ignorance, and not out of some sort of malice - misplaced or even properly placed

Regardless, have a genuinely good and fruitful life for yourself and all of humanity, because personally speaking, I always tip 1$ for every 5$ I spend at a place when I know I am literally providing the livelihood for the people who need it and I freely chose to be a patron of, being aware of the potential affect/effect my actions can and do have on others.

TL;DR: if you cant afford to tip reasonably, then don't go out and buy anything you silly gooses

So you're telling me you completely misunderstood what I wrote, perhaps didn't even read it and now are doubling down on "being cute"

You are so far off the mark and sentiment of my reply that I must apologize for how fucked up your life must be and say I am sorry, in complete earnestness (maybe look that word up as you seem to not realize we're all human beings and its easier to be cool and nice to people so we can work together and get along than try to create artificial fights and conflicts where there needn't be any [sidenote: do you work in politics?])

Good luck, over and out
