Nighty night. Sleep tight and don't let the bedbugs bite.
Sweet dreams, fdpaq. 😴😴

Shortened version: I’m truly sorry you can’t understand simple, basic cash flow. No matter how you wish to frame it, the customer pays 100% of the employees’ wages.

Don’t like tips? Demand a 20% price increase to cover actual employee costs.

Personally, I like to have some say over the compensation of those who serve me - treat me well and get a good tip, treat me poorly and get what you get.
