There have been some reports of tips not going to the staff that you were intending them to go to. Some tips get put in a pool of money along with other tips and then shared amoungst all staff: in theory this could be good but I remember one person on the radio saying the shared money was used for a night out which they were unable to to attend and a thus never saw there share of the money.
Even worse is some managers have taking the tip money for themselves. Sometimes the establishments have a policy to take tip money from employees and it is never seen again. Some peple are so selfish and greedy.
If you don't like tips move to Japan where tiling is considered rude. Then again Japanese society is incredibly racist so I wouldn't recommend it! (just ask any Koreans or so-called "Hafu" living in Japan).
It's a real shame that most service sector workers do not have access to collective bargaining. We need strong labour unions to help these workers achieve better pay and conditions. Then maybe they don't need to be so reliant on tips.
