I would be glad to get rid of our Tip Mentality for waitstaff. Raise the Wage!

See it can be a company’s choice Costco can obviously afford the $15hr But to governmentally mandate it across the bd...it will kill most small to midsize biznesses working on small profit margins
Replying to @marwilliamson
Yes, and without government intervention.

Sure it can for a corporation with that kind of money! Small business can NOT survive. Maybe that is your goal.

Costco can afford it, the small store is screwed up the bank account.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Yes...without the government sticking their nose in it.

I have no problem with companies doing this voluntarily. Forcing everyone to do it is immoral.
