When you’re stuck like glue

When you need some goo

When you’re black and blue

If you’d like to woo

Yeah, that one definitely flopped when I tried it.

Yes, but a lot less. I unsubscribed from everything except some niche communities that are inactive/nonexistent on Lemmy, plus a few related to the Fediverse.

But the loss of Rif means I’m using it a lot less anyway.

Others have answered the question, but I did want to mention - many people mention that tips are important because employees can be paid below minimum wage, but this varies state by state, and in my experience tipping is standard regardless of this.

Here’s a table of minimum wage by state:

https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/state/minimum-wage/tipped

The “Minimum Cash Wage” column is the “tipped” minimum wage - this is what employers can pay for jobs that get tips. The “Basic Combined Cash & Tip Minimum Wage Rate” is the minimum wage for non-tipped jobs, as well as the minimum a tipped employee must receive in wage plus tips - if they don’t make enough tips, legally the employer must pay the difference.

So for example, in Washington state where I am, the minimum wage is $15.74 whether you’re tipped or not, but it’s still considered rude not to tip, and 20% is still the standard “good” tip.
