You mean this? I don't see how you can make this blanket statement even if you have worked on restaurant software.
Do you really believe that lower wages for servers translates directly into owner profit and none of it is used to remain competitive on price? That it would be possible to eliminate tips, pay competitive wages and have food prices remain the same? That the owners would only see their profits be reduced and this would have no effect on their business?
Would you believe the same were true if, instead of paying higher wages, the business had to pay higher taxes? That they could easly absord the higher operating costs with no effect on prices charged?
