I understand the instinct to direct her anger at these people for not tipping better but the real culprit is her employer for not paying her better so she doesn't depend on tips to live
Fucked up how it turns regular people against each other

Have you ever worked in a restaurant? Because when I was in highschool, I know the waiters/waitresses where I worked damn sure made twice as much as the cooks/dishwashers in the back. And then didn't claim all of it come tax time. I have a hard time feeling empathy for people living off of tips. Unless you're just bad at your job or in a real shitty neighborhood, I don't buy a single person working in a tipping industry acting like they're underpaid compared to so many similar skilled jobs.
