Shortly before opening, Casa Bonita’s new owners Matt Stone and Trey Parker decided to eliminate tipping and instead pay workers a flat wage of $30 per hour.
Now I could be wrong, but getting a an hourly wage as a restaurant worker is FAR better than relying on tips. I feel like either workers in this situation are too obsessed with tips or there’s huge context missing.
I don’t go out much, but when I do, I tip. I know the pay is shit, so I’ll do my part until wages get better. If I knew a place had the option of getting 30/ hour and wanted to go back to tips, I sure wouldn’t.
