There’s a restaurant in seattle facing this issue right now. Walrus and the Carpenter. The staff is on strike because they want to keep tips as they feel they don’t make enough on salary. The restaurant just released their books and the owners arent making much more than a bartender at $90k. And that’s across all their restaurants.
It’s a complicated topic, complicated by different areas and laws, and complicated by both sides having good and bad points.
I absolutely believe that astroturfing happens on this topic. But natural opposition does as well.
I’m sure there’s some of that as well.
