[Sg] - Chee Soon Juan Says F&B Industry Work Is Back-Breaking, Encourages Singaporeans to Tip His Café Staff

eatshitndie said:
that’s why he should not pass the proverbial buck and responsibility of paying his staff to customers with the notion of tips. either pay them more or charge customer more, or both. his eateries cannot be the only business in sg prompting customers for tips to make up for lack of pay of his staff. stupid.

Me think the service charge needs to b clearly defined. The restaurant charge 10%. Is it given directly to the wait staff or used as profits? If used as profits....abolishing it n raising port prices would b more efficient. However I think such practice remains due to making it easy to scam customers. Cause customers have the mindset that have to pay 10% more. However if no service charge n the bill goes up by 10%. The increase is harder to hide. So 10% is like a reserve profit...easy to get n custs won't complain (as much)

depends on towkays and or management. some honor it while others abuse it. for example, in many chink and neh/paki eateries in sf, chink and neh/paki bosses keep all the tips and surcharges like service or city imposed fair wage fees to themselves if these are paid electronically via credit cards and cashless apps. this abuse is possible as bosses manage all electronic payments in the back office. same in prc too. that’s why some regular customers who sympathize with service staff pay tips with cash directly and separately to the service staff instead of adding to the bill. some gongcheebye customers add cash tips to bills in payment folders and the unscrupulous towkays quickly grab them and seize the cash. some towkays even keep the cash in the tip jar all to themselves. it’s the 6.9k years of selfish, greedy, and cheating culture of chinks and nehs/pakis. can eat and cheat don’t waste. i don’t encounter this problem with latino and angmoh joints.

many of these fly by night fnb joints in sf are used by fob towkays to apply for long term “business” visas, act as cover for money laundering, human trafficking, smuggling of banned goods, food and ingredients, pose as fronts for illegal activities. 1 such joint in sf kena busted for organizing and trading in theft of catalytic converters. stolen catalytic converters were never stashed at the shop (they were hidden in warehouses and auto “chop shops”), only cash and electronic transfer of money for sales and trading of these converters were made by the couple who own the “small” business. not small ok, tens to hundreds of millions were sexchanged and transacted across several states. u.s. is huge market for stolen catalytic converters.

illegal immigrants who are tricked, human-trafficked, and had their passports seized also shy away from talking to authorities as they fear getting caught and deported. this sf restaurant owed $1.69m to staff for stealing their tips and not paying wages.
