An Italian holiday may be a priceless experience for those who have enjoyed all this country has to offer. But the summer of 2023 will go down as one of the priciest in history after a slew of price gouging scandals at cafes and restaurants that have affected foreign tourists and Italians alike.
Servers don’t receive a lower wage than anyone else regardless of how you feel about the way they get paid. That’s my point. Boosting minimum wage would help them AND everyone else. I don’t know how much clearer I can be. You guys keep bringing in random things like the staff being treated badly but that’s not relevant to the discussion or unique to restaurant work. I feel like you don’t want to admit that you hate it because you hate tipping but there’s nothing wrong with that. Just stop pretending to be protecting people that aren’t generally any worse off than anyone else making minimum wage.
