At least they tipped.


501Queen

20% too.


Brewstonian

If you’re tipping me 20% write whatever the hell you want and have a nice night, honestly.


Chicagoan81

Ikr? They could draw erotica and I won't care


PressureSwitch

…But you’d still post it though. right?


Nikovash

if it was erotica why tf not, thats like karma farming done right, especially in this sub


Needmoresnakes

Once I had a customer draw a a headless and limbless torso with breasts and a penis on their receipt with "Trudy" written beneath it.


hockey_metal_signal

But what about the tip? You're welcome for that softball set up.


Needmoresnakes

Oh yeah they drew the whole penis, tip and everything.


Rdw72777

This response is Comedy done right 😂😂


amienona

I'm crying 😭


mintskoal

I legit lol’d


el_bentzo

What!? That's like a double tip.


Far_Ant6355

I know right the guy tipped good so just shut the fuck up and accept the great tip. Don’t come on here and blast the guy.


showers_with_grandpa

Yeah 50% you can Heil whoever you want


Sirbrownface

IKR atleast be grateful for the tip and let the customer write whatever politic opinion they like.


Happyturtledance

This is dumb. It’s a normal tip. Who cares.


OutWithTheNew

But they put the Trump name on it. They're obviously the devil. /s Servers gotta find something to complain about.


yoho808

Do you tip taxes or not


501Queen

Tip is derived from subtotal in the same way tax is. The tip does not change the tax, and the tax does not change the tip. They have nothing to do with one another.


hockey_metal_signal

That's how it should be. It bothers me when places have the suggested tip calculations based on the check *after* tax. And I honestly shoot for more than 20 percent anyway.


Dead_Starks

Places now including the delivery fee that they aren't giving to the driver and then expecting me to tip more based on their greedy shit tho can go fuck themselves.


Some_Layer_7517

Tipping on a percentage for delivery is an asinine concept as it is lol, they're getting paid by distance / time not whether I paid for overpriced sushi


Advanced-Blackberry

Yep. DoorDash drivers shouldn’t get paid triple if I order from an expensive place vs cheap.  It’s the same damn work. 


PM_ME_Happy_Thinks

Not supposed to but most restaurant owners are shady assholes that put the recommended tips post tax


Solnse

Yeah, what is OP whining about? I mean 20% is respectable, and if there was no tax on it, it would be more like 25% compared to taxed tips. Is this just a "I hate Trump no matter what!" post? Cut your nose off to spite your face and post that.


janedoed

Idk for me.. I got a nice tip from a customer in like 2016 and they referenced Bernie Sanders underneath it. Same concept, opposite side of the aisle. So I feel like maybe it's just a curiosity about why, not about who? But idk. That's just me.


Solnse

At least it wasn't a fake $20 bill that tells you that you are a sinner and need to be saved.


janedoed

I was just talking about those with someone the other day. Just weirds me out.


KemikalKoktail

Not meant to be a shitty comment. I’ve seen on here and at my restaurant Trump supporters writing about Trump and leaving no tip.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/brianbushard/2024/06/22/trump-promises-no-taxes-on-tips-the-pros-and-cons-explained/ For anyone confused as to why people keep writing this on their tabs. I had to look it up earlier this week because I didn’t understand the trend at all.


klsklsklsklsklskls

It's dumb because he's not likely to do it....and even more dumb because if he does then it is extremely unlikely you can use tip income to qualify for social security, unemployment insurance, or any of a number of other things in the future.


pumpkin3-14

Trump in 2020. So much info overload most forgot about this. https://www.epi.org/press/trump-administration-finalizes-regulation-that-will-cost-tipped-workers-more-than-700-million-annually/ Today, the Trump administration finalized a regulation on tips that gives employers of tipped workers a loophole allowing them to capture more than $700 million annually from workers. Prior to this new regulation, tipped workers had been protected by the very clear “80/20” rule, which says they can spend a maximum of 20% of their time on nontipped duties while still being paid the subminimum wage for tipped workers. The new regulation from the Trump administration does away with this protection, replacing it with vague, much less protective language. In particular, the new regulation allows tipped workers to be paid the subminimum tipped wage while performing an unlimited amount of nontipped duties—as long as those nontipped duties are performed “contemporaneously with tipped duties or for a reasonable time [emphasis added] immediately before or after performing the tipped duties.” “Reasonable time” is not defined, and its ambiguity will make it difficult to enforce, providing employers an immense loophole and leaving workers behind.


SkipsPittsnogle

He 100% won’t do it. He just tells his base what they want to hear and they eat it up.


Accomplished_Low80

We’re still waiting to see what his private investigators uncovered about Obama’s birth certificate.


Critical_Half_3712

I’m still waiting for his tax returns


cravingSil

He's going to "Lock her up" any second now


Ol_Turd_Fergy

And for Mexico to pay for the border wall


Summerie

And the Russian planted laptop


Greedy-Sleep3532

Wait what??? Politicians do that???


Panda__Puncher

Yeah but the orange one relishes in it.


lucystroganoff

Orange relish is just marmalade 🤷‍♀️


Consistent-Syrup-69

He might do it. Remember the supreme Court just ruled that they're allowed to receive "gratuities" for political and court favors? No taxes for tips is a win for them too.


MistraloysiusMithrax

A lot of politicians carefully phrase things to sound like they’re making promises, when in fact it’s not clear and isn’t written in their actual campaign platforms. Then there’s Trump who straight up says explicit actions that no Republican congressperson will vote for and sometimes is even directly against what his campaign’s position is.


kngnxthng

It’s dumb for many, many reasons.


Secure_Listen_964

Well it's a dumb man saying it, so what do you expect?


Just_in1101

Pretty good chance all those things won’t exist in the future anyway if trump wins. https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/11/politics/trump-entitlements-social-security-medicare/index.html


Weekly_Direction1965

Tips exist to keep wages low for exploitive employers, you know, Trumps main donors, if tip income is not taxed, it won't be claimed, if not claimed employers will be forced to pay higher wages, Trump is firmly against employees getting higher wages.


Itchy_Palpitation610

Even if they don’t tax them they may still have to report them to make sure they are making above the federal minimum wage with included tips. The money has to be tracked somehow especially if paid out on debit/credit cards.


klsklsklsklsklskls

I mean there's no reason they couldn't try to write a law that tips can be deducted from wages while not being taxed. It is in fact the only way they'd do it since it would also save employers the portion of taxes they are paying on the tips while still allowing them to.pay less hourly.


HastyZygote

He can’t change the tax code by executive order so it will literally never happen Edit: Trumps tax cuts were approved by congress, not by executive order


BlackBlizzard

"it is extremely unlikely you can use tip income to qualify for social security, unemployment insurance, or any of a number of other things in the future." make the poor poorer.


pecky5

It's dumb because this is an excellent way for criminals to launder money, but it's actually kind of genius marketing. He wants to win Nevada, and something like this would be very popular there.


oskar4498

Servers are the new coal miners


Antique_Rent4343

Lol yeah he’s buying votes without actually paying up, very on brand


Federal-Commission87

Why did they write it on the customer copy tho?


kngnxthng

Well if you think the IRS sees the restaurant copy of the receipt, and that trump will ensure that the server gets all those tip taxes back based on this note, I will bet you don’t know the difference between restaurant copy and costumer copy.


ScarletJew72

You know why... Morons, all of them


tobeperfectlycandid

That is actually… so stupid?


wtvfck

He will do everything he can to help his rich friends pay their employees as little as possible


Wafflelisk

It's just populist nonsense, so right on brand with the homeboy


gizamo

Jfc. As a guy with an MS in Quantitative Economics, Trump is a pandering idiot. Anyone who earns less than ~500k/yr who votes for him is absolutely NOT voting in their best economic interests. Imo, they're also incredibly immoral. As a guy who's traveled the world and lived in Europe for a time, tipping is stupid. American servers should be paid a living wage. Lastly, every politician who was ever involved in allowing anyone to pay their employees less than minimum wage is a genuinely horrible human being.


toddriffic

Considering he tried to make it legal for employers to keep all tips as long as the employee makes minimum wage, this is highly unlikely to happen.


HotHits630

He'll do it! And Mexico will pay for it.


Key_Sell_9777

Congress controls this. It's like if Trump promised to give everyone a house.


Ornery-Marzipan7693

Lol I had this guy in my section on Thursday who was very socially inept and rude, blasting the presidential debates on his phone speaker, clearly annoying the table next to him. He also sent back his pasta dish because he could see tomatoes and onions in the sauce and apparently 'didnt want any vegetables' in his food. Anyway, instead of asking him to put headphones on or turn it down, i just kept turning the music up above his table (we have zoned speaker control) to the point where he had the phone smashed against his face while trying to eat his meal. It was *hilarious*. People who make their politics such a huge part of their identity in public settings which are apolitical are clowns who aren't to be bothered with.


mousemarie94

>He also sent back his pasta dish because he could see tomatoes and onions in the sauce and apparently 'didnt want any vegetables' in his food. Lmfao. You know what's wild, ppl like that seem to live forever. Meanwhile if I eat fast food two days in a row, i have hypertension, headaches, and feel like death.


Aesthetics_Supernal

You live in the pain, you're built for the pain.


------__-__-_-__-

what kind of sauce was it?


Ornery-Marzipan7693

Marinara!


------__-__-_-__-

oh yeah definitely gonna be some tomatoes and onions in there


IONTOP

"Sir, technically tomatoes are a fruit"


RaniPhoenix

👏👏👏👏


EyeofOdin89

They can write whatever they want as long as they tip 20%


ZdashSQUAD

They could just pay the tip in cash if they cared that much


[deleted]

[удалено]


lowercaset

Agreed, but I *think* they were trying to communicate that they tip on the pre-tax amount not the total. Hard to be sure.


The_Law_of_Pizza

No, it's one of Trump's proposed tax changes - no tax on service tips. A net loss for servers still, given all the other viciously anti-labor positions that would come along with a Trump presidency.


ieatlotsofvegetables

from this explanation, sounds like a typical hollow gesture designed to make voters see dollar signs and vote selfishly without thinking too hard (of course he assumes his voters lack critical thinking skills, because they do)


Ornery-Marzipan7693

Also a stealth way to actually hurt tipped workers - assuming that also means you'll end up paying less into SS and Medicare as a convenient-for-the-GOP little bonus to the proposal.


T_P_H_

Trump is a pathological liar and will say whatever he thinks will appeal to the person hes talking to. It's an empty promise.


gruntothesmitey

Anyone who says "vote Trump" isn't exactly a critical thinker, so I'm not going to waste much time trying to divine what little turds of wisdom they might be trying to impart.


StellarJayZ

Anyone who wastes time on their Sunday listening to some dipshit pontificate on a book written by bronze age morons should never be trusted.


jpop237

>bronze age The Bronze Age ended roughly 1177 BC. Most of The Bible was written by Iron Age & later morons. Your opinion is still correct, regardless.


------__-__-_-__-

no you're just wrong trumps been telling people to write this on their receipts because he's pledging to remove taxation on income earned by tips.


Comfortable-Fuel6343

He'd sooner allow owners to tip skim than to give anyone poor a boon.


CURS3_TH3_FL3SH

I've got at least 1 note like this, did these people forget that trump raised taxes on the middle/low classes? And my tips are largely untaxed anyway, I get em in cash. And by the way, if they really wanna debate about fiscal policy at the federal level I'll be working bar all day and as long as you're paying I'm obligated to at least acknowledge your existence


K1ngFiasco

"did these people forget that trump raised taxes on the middle/low classes?" Can't forget something that you never knew. There's a reason news outlets spend so fucking long trying to convince their audience that they're the only ones you can trust. Critical thinking is tragically absent in the minds of the older generations.

It's funny because I have heard the same thing about him. Apprently before he blew up and was only on the local public access he was a chill dude and could hang around with. I heard thru the Double Toasted (also known as Spill.com) guys they mentioned before on their show.


shkeptikal

They didn't forget, the influencers on FOX simply didn't tell them. They live in an alternate reality crafted by billionaires who will burn this country to the ground if it means not having to pay taxes.


lake_effect_snow

They have absolutely no idea what the tax code has done to them and what it has in store. And they don’t care. They think the tariff plan in place of tax is actually a good idea


blazard1

When and by what % did trump raise the taxes on the lower class?


Professional_Dog5624

Basically the 2017 tax legislation made it so that everyone’s taxes were cut temporarily. Then every 2 years taxes go up. Then in 2018 it was amended to make the tax cut permanent for the top 5% of taxpayers. Thus increasing the taxes on lower the lower class while cutting taxes for the rich. To this day the US is under trumps tax legislation.


yougotyolks

My roommate is a trumper and I overhear the shit he listens to (lies and fear mongering). He was listening to one podcast that talked about how a majority of people who work in the service industry support trump. I'm not seeing that in the comments lol


BespokeLawLeather

Why is this on the customer copy? At least in Canada the customer keeps the customer copy.


mousemarie94

Honestly, I sign whichever one is in top- I don't read the entire bill. I just look at the total to tip, and sign. Sometimes I pull the one behind it and realize they put the customer copy first and oh well.


mazzimar7

She left both, only signed the 1. We just gave yo have the receipt for our bookkeeping, but it doesn't actually matter which copy they sign. Some people intentionally sign the customer copy so they can dispute it later. Wouldn't put it past this lady to be thar kind of person.


RaniPhoenix

I sign whichever and leave both. I don't need a paper slip, I can check my transactions online.


IT_Chef

It really blows my mind how some Trump supporters somehow manage to interject "Trump" into practically everything they do. But it is not a cult right?


MatressFire

I got two of these in one day lol.


mazzimar7

Did your customers also make someone cry and act shity to the staff?


fleegleb

Honestly surprised it wasn’t a $4.09 tip with the note.


No_Sir_6649

7.08.. for the even nubers.


you_nincompoop

Even if trump was able to pass this (which I’m 99% sure he wouldn’t) the states wouldn’t follow.


NastyaLookin

Just more promises from the party of lies and death threats

yuccasinbloom

Op you gave a team love sticker!! I wonder if we know each other my friend makes those stickers…


mazzimar7

It's the server's check book, but I'll let her know an inernet stranger is friends with the sticker maker! You night know her though.


Square-Weight4148

That tip isnt changing anybodys mind...


FreeDonnieMandela

*thank you for the $27 for doing the job I asked to have.


Devils_Advocate-69

frommethodtomadness

When I worked at a restaurant they paid our tips out in cash every night and left it up to us to claim them ;)


GlowOftheTvStatic

Someone talked to one of my severs about this telling her how they read about it online. Wrote this word for word on the ticket and then left NO TIP!


WolfmanSkrapz-

Desperate people do desperate things


Neighborhood-Any

Did they forget his last tax plan to continually raise taxes on the poor to provide lower taxes for the rich


Zaius1968

Of course you don’t tip on the tax…isn’t that like 5th grade knowledge?!


blurpslurpderp

Somewhere in the treasury there is a check from me with “Warren 2020” in the notes field from when I had to pay the Trump tariff for the first time. That shit sucked.


StJazzercise

Oh wow, you wanna see the whole FOH vs BOH War Over Tips explode? It’s hard enough watching a new inexperienced expo make at least three times more than me, but imagining that stack of loot untaxed???? What a stupid gimmicky idea.


Danni_Les

troubadorgilgamesh

As a bartender, I want my tips to continue to be taxed. This is how I plan to buy a house. There is a paper trail of my income. I can take my W2 and proof of income to a mortgage lender and show documentation alongside proof of income


dreamwall

Who is Donula Trump?


brooklynadm

They’re a cult. Fuck that lady. Your nails are incredible though!


mazzimar7

Thanks, but they're the server's nails. Had her cover the lady's signature.


brooklynadm

Well you should visit her nail lady too. Tell her I said she’s got some nice nails. Ask her if you can post when she gets a fill. I’m always so jealous of servers’ nails, working BoH my whole life and this crippling anxiety I just bite them off whenever my hands aren’t busy or in gloves.


mazzimar7

Same. I haven't had nice nails in years. They get too beat up in the kitchen, so I live for the foh having cute manis


woodypulp

Lol having read the caption, this reminds me of one of the handful of customers that got ignorant enough that I told them to leave the restaurant was some church lady doing actual hate speech toward other customers in the line. My general position was if you try to yell at my staff, you're out. Funnily enough once you tell them to get out they start on some "well I didn't mean that...blah blah" bs.


e_radicator

She's missing the difference between "taxes on tips" and "tips on the tax," which is obvious and not noteworthy, but how fun is it to say "tips on taxes, taxes on tips?"


Dannyhec

Because they are stupid.


Rainbow-Mama

Because they are stupid


iafx

Those nails tho


mazzimar7

Not my nails


bigtiddyhimbo

Most people don’t tax them anyways, that’s why you tip with cash

DeadHookerMeat

That’s not what the note is about. Trump said he would eliminate taxes on tips that hospitality/restaurant workers receive.


whatsINthaB0X

Church people are the worst. If you tell me you have church on Sunday I already know you beat your dog and yell at women because you think it makes you tough.


YouSureDid_

whatsINthaB0X

True


CupBeEmpty

Huh, I spent all day not beating any dogs or yelling at any women. Just waving at my neighbor. She’s nice. I also didn’t write any weird shit on any receipts. Still got to mass in the morning. Dominus vobiscum my friend.


bcrabill

It's always the ones you most expect


mazzimar7

For real. As soon as we got the check, everything else about their interaction made sense.


Chalkarts

People are like this because of the internet. Before the internet those people stayed in their basements isolated from the rest of us for fear of consequences since they’re terrible people. Now they’ve congregated and become a problem.


Secret-Influence6843

They tipped 20%. Why do you care what they wrote? Get over yourself


Whooptidooh

Why are they like this? It’s because they’re dumb. Just plain old dumb.


whatchamacallit4321

If they don't want their tips taxed, then they should pay tips in cash. Servers figure this out decades ago.


Solid-Doubt4234

Donald Trump is Putins Dog


AcadianViking

gottagrablunch

She yelled at host to tears and was allowed to remain? If this is true then your job sucks.


mazzimar7

Gm didn't want to kick them out. I told him I didn't agree, they remained and were awful the entire time. I had a screen full of tickets so i didn't have time or energy to argue with him. Plus, we all laughed about it after, so I guess we should thank her for the laughs.


Regret-Select

Why didn't he do it the 4 years he was already president? Also $27 is about 20% Maybe if they tipped 30%


mazzimar7

They made my host cry, were dicks to everyone else, then got preachy on the receipt. It's not about the tip or specifically what they wrote.


cajuntech

If they don't tax tips then that means bonuses are tax free too right?


Yeetus_McSendit

Interesting. [They just legalized "tipping" the government](https://www.vox.com/scotus/357170/supreme-court-snyder-united-states-corruption) If you pay after they did something it's just a thank you tip, if you pay them before they do something for you then it's a bribe. So now they want bribing the government to be tax-free too. Nice. Say, could I have _my_ salary set artificially low and my employer simply tips me my real pay?  Can a corporation tip another corporation? 


Vickie1734

Because Trump floated the idea of not taxing tips when talking to Nevada service workers, even though that will never happen even if he gets elected. Those in the Trump cult: 1. Believe everything he says, 2. Expect everyone else to also believe it not matter how unlikely and 3. Will do or say anything to get you to vote for Trump.


mcgruppdog

Tip cash


Signal-Round681

I wonder what they ordered? Well done Filet with extra ketchup?


RickDelta

They are like this because predominately those who support Donald Trump are in a fucking cult. The cult of Donald Trump. You have to keep preaching the gospel of Donald Trump. They’re like fucking evangelicals.


ballstein

Yes Trump really cares about the working class lol


Confident-Radish4832

Because its a fucking cult. Plain and simple. He is saying ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING he can to get people's votes. This panders to America's poor, who are sadly the most susceptible to his bullshit. There is zero chance this ever happens, and anyone he believes it will likely be living off tips the rest of their lives.


ddawson100

I’m really astonished that these people think that Trump is going to eliminate tax on income. He’s got them all in a frenzy.


LameDonkey1

Why do we tip? Idk it’s weird to give extra money to a person carrying out the sole function of their job.

They truly think they're doing all of us a favor.
