Nothing is more direct than the boss seeing an indifferent waitress.

If Basking Robbins which is known as a cheerful, happy, place didn’t have tipping, it was pretty strange for you to use them as your example.

“””A restaurant is ALL about fun. As my boss told me in my first job - Baskin-Robbins - “We don’t sell ice cream. They can buy ice cream in a grocery store. We sell happiness.”

The waitress or waiter is part of the dining experience. The job is to deliver “happy”. It is not in any way like a contractor.”””

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck FINDING the boss in a lot of restaurants! And nothing is more direct than refusing to pay someone yourself!

Tipping on a 25 cent ice cream cone vs tipping on a $100 dinner....hmmm...you don’t see a difference? And most BRs are not particularly cheerful, happy places, and the service there is usually no better than adequate. But then, my boss may have understood the business better than most.
