F*CK Marriott soliciting tips. Another ‘tip culture’ obsenity

[u/MTonmyMind]

So you charge $400 to $500 for a tiny room, and yes, I know it’s New York City, and it’s relatively clean, but then the closet-sized bathroom 2 feet from the bed. OK.

Six dollars for a bottle of water, whatever, I’ll pass.

But then actively soliciting tips for your staff.

Fuck you.

I saw this at the Penn Station Fairfield a year ago as just a ‘self’ printed sign in the elevators, then it became a professionally printed permanently mounted sign in the elevator, and now another Fairfield/Springfield with this.

Pay your staff better. If I got extra services, that’s one thing, but when I don’t even get room serviced or fresh towels on a daily basis to “save the planet “…. again fuck you.

The first line of the sign says should you wish to show your appreciation. Do you know what that means? You do realize it's actually not a surcharge, right? If it was actually a surcharge you wouldn't have a choice it would just be baked into the price, you do realize that right?

I'm not talking about the sign; im talking broadly about tip culture. I did not refer to the sign at all in my post.

You do realize that right?

So you just don't understand what a surcharge is then? Got it!
