As much as I hate corporations, getting a tax break with your donation is actually something shitty they’re not doing. It’s misinformation, the donator gets the tax break, not the corp. At least in the United States.
I read something about this. While they don’t get a tax break, they can hold on to the money for as long as they like… I assume, but don’t know, they could collect interest on it.
The only argument I’ve heard for tipping is that “servers don’t get paid minimum wage and rely on your tips” which has nothing to do with the kitchen.
So yes, fuck tipping. Get angry at your boss for not paying you enough, not at me for not subsiding their shitty wages.
I’m not back of house. In fact, when I was in the service industry, I was front of house and pretty damn good at it. But even the best paid cooks I’m more than happy to tip out because I’m fat and I love food. Most of the times I’ll but a round for the whole back of house, dishwasher included. But I’m not gunna do that at Sonny’s drive through.
Why would I donate so a corporation can get a tax break or good press out of my money?
People who donate at the till are probably the people who tip on drive thru orders.

With that being said, will corporations lobby to change tax policy so they get the write off? Probably!

So, just fuck the people actually making the food? The tip should go to the fancy person who just holds your food for 30 seconds?
Nah tipping at the drive through is better
