Yup, it is expected the customer pays the employers employee's wages in the service industry.

Pretty good gig to be a boss.

Go to the bank for a loan to open a cafe/restaurant.

"How will you pay your employee's?"

You what mate?

I just talked to someone who kept going on about how business owners take risks. I don't know why tipping culture didn't pop up in my mind. Businesses create so many BS ways to screw everyone and benefit themselves, fuck the risk involved. Pay your fucking workers a living wage. And if you can't, then you're running your business wrong or something in your lifestyle is gonna have to change.
