“You can smell really expensive without it costing an arm and a leg” Are you for real?? Lost all respect for your channel when I had to endure your gushing endorsement of your promotion of a monthly perfume subscription ….
@@yaramar34dude it's just perfume. I think she does a lot more for society to get some slack for doing ads to continue spreading awareness. You can stop a subscription, and if you really want to get into perfume it's a good intro to that world. If you're not interested it's just not for you, and that's also okay.
No matter how bad things get I remind myself I could be trapped in a pyramid scheme convinced I'm a business owner.😎
Same! 🤣
Omg don’t be so negative and cast doubt on our dreams k 🙄.
We need enablers in this business.
😅😅😅
Falling over laughing! 😂 I'm gonna use that next time I feel hopeless. Thanks!!
@@laurapardy8297 was that a joke
As a European the tip credit system is COMPLETELY insane. There's no tip culture or expectation here and I can only see it becoming a way to thank for excellent service, not a way to make sure the waitress gets to eat tonight🙃
trust me most people in the US think it is insane as well. It is always a big battle here between people who think tipping should be mandatory and people who think it is their right to exercise not tipping or tipping poorly simply because it isn't really mandatory to tip at all. It is always a battle of wills. Then there are people like me who think we should abolish tip culture and maybe just make business pay their dang employees and that perhaps we shouldn't be enabling this practice. I use to work in food and have to rely on tips, however in my state business are required to make up for lost wages if tips did not equal minimum wage.. which is why tip share is a thing here which is also dumb for it's own reasons.
Don't get me wrong I do tip when i go out however i just think it needs to go.
@@jijipoid Thanks for your perspective. The system is so confusing that when me and my dad were in IHOP a couple years back in NYC he literally had to ask the waiter how much he should tip. IMO obviously the businesses should pay the workers enough so they wouldn't have to rely on tips. but now that the system is like this everyone probably should tip at least 20% to make sure that the waiting staff get paid :(
As an American what’s truly insane to me is how everywhere is slowly starting to expect tips, like Starbucks and five guys (a fast food place) places where (to my knowledge) are getting paid at the very least minimum wage. Starbucks used to have a tip jar at the drive through but now when paying by card it asks about tip first
@@claudiahdz20 that's nuts. fast food doesn't even include waiting on someone and giving service beyond handing them food once...
As someone having been in the industry for more than 15 years, the Starbucks thing for example isn’t something expected (though obviously appreciated). I’ve wanted to tip many times with no cash on hand for example in an establishment like that. Putting it on the receipt that way offers an option to non cash carriers.
Restaurants where you’re dining and being served is obviously a different scenario.
If you can't afford to pay your staff, don't own a business. No one should have to tip.
exactly
They tried that where I lived in a couple of restaurants; no one liked the increase in menu prices!
Wrong. You know how eating out works. And tipped wage is good for the lower economy. As someone who spent over 20 years making 2.15 an hour, let me, who has experience and lived in that socioeconomic class, explain to you:
With tipped wage, you are expected to tip anywhere from 10-20%. This allows servers, who might not have skills or education to find a different job, to have the opportunity to make more than minimum wage (in my home state of Alabama, minimum wage is 7.25- absolutely unliveable wage- no place in the US has THAT low od a cost of living). This also incentivezes people to actually take server jobs. Servers deal with the public more than any low ranking job- even in retail you might have to help someone find something every once in awhile but are often dealing with most customers just once at checkout.
So let's say you get your wish tomorrow and all servers suddenly get minimum wage but tipping stops. Here's what will happen: restaurant owners WILL raise food prices anywhere from 20-40% and blame it on this "forced wage increase". Funny enough, those same people who complained about tipping a whopping 15% (that used to go directly to the server) will still gladly go out to eat and pay an extra 25 or 30% without saying jack sh*t. But now all you've done is created thousands more minimum wage jobs that no one can live off of. Congratulations. And now no one wants to be a server anymore. Do you think I'd have put up with all the sh*t I took for 20 years if it wasn't for the fact that I could make at least a little better than minimum wage? All the cursing, people calling me names, the disgusting messes, people actually throwing food at me? Hell no. Most people are lovely and go out to have a nice time but even then, you get at least one really nasty person per shift who think you're their personal servant because you're getting paid 2.15 an hour to bring them food (and they don't tip or tip like crap, too). And the servers who do take the jobs have no incentive to do a good job. They're making minimum wage regardless so what do they care if you wait 10 extra minutes to get your iced tea refilled? Or get the butter you're actually waiting on for your potato before it gets cold? Now they don't care because they're reserving some energy for the second job they had to get just to pay their bills. All because people whined about tipping 15-20% (and are now actually paying much more for the food). All you've managed to do is pay MORE for your meal (because restaurant owners WILL take the opportunity to make more profit) but made sure that the e tra went straight to the restaurant owner instead of those who do actual work enriching the owner. As well as made sure thousands who used to make at least enough to pay their bills now make crappy minimum wage. But great job on not having to tip anymore! Feel good?
Agreed 100%. But until this is done, people should absolutely tip their server or not dine out.
@@amandascharf3870That’s why there should be laws regulating this matter, so that every place has to pay their employees and prices increase everywhere. Tips shouldn’t be meant to survive, they should be extra money for good service that customers can give if they want to.
As an Australian I find tipping hard to get my head around. Nobody should be reliant on the fickle judgement of the general public to make minimum wage. Couldn’t agree more with your position.
As an American, I also find the tipping policies hard to get my head around! 🤣
Honestly, even as a Canadian, where tipping culture is normal, it's difficult to fathom the differences. It can vary based on province here, but generally there's still a minimum wage for servers, although it can be a reduced wage. (for example $12 an hour instead of $15). Most of the provinces have now gotten rid of a separate minimum wage for servers, however.
Still, it is more or less expected to tip, and it's a weird hybrid system. At least I know my server is getting minimum wage even if they're incredibly rude and I do decide not to tip, though. 😂
I agree. I also have a different perspective. Tipping = commission. To me I provide top tier service so I’ve earned 18-20%+. A lot of servers don’t do that job and have an expectation to get 20%+ when they aren’t being hospitable, getting to know tables, being personable, upselling, etc. I think we should get rid of tips and up it to minimum wage.
@@chaseohara4781 Yeah, there's no way I'm ever tipping again now that they get guaranteed min wage as a baseline. Plus none of them pay taxes, which is huge in Canada... It's one of the best paid jobs if you're attractive or work in a busy area. Friend of mine cleared 50$+ an hour straight into his pocket. You'd have to make over 100$/hr to match at a taxed job.
@@hannahkritschgau3016 Exactly, it's meaningless when it's required.
I’m American and I think it’s so insane that employers won’t just pay their employees a living wage at restaurants. Just make everything 20% more expensive and actually pay people! And don’t get me started on how minimum wage isn’t even a living wage to begin with….
Someone told the that the businesses would close and jobs would be lost but like... That's an acceptable sacrifice SINCE THEY WEREN'T PAYING THEIR WORKERS ANYWAY. And a very temporary one.
Or how the moment they raise min wage eggs milk and ALL other products become exactly that much more expensive. Wild. It's a design to keep poor, poor....
Well, now California is giving either $20 or $25 minimum wage, even if you work in fast food.
They tried that here and it failed. Pretty sad.
The way I would never dine at that place again.
Lol, the seller talking about how easy it is to sell Amare because people are desperate for mental health help is the definition of "saying the quiet part out loud" 😬
I think a lot of people go for MLMs in the US because of health costs. Our mental health is an issue in the US and people can't afford medications and appointments. Essential Oils, Supplements, Drinks, etc (while overpriced) can be a cheap alternative.
@@shn4zy they don't work
Parents: Honey I’m concerned you don’t have medical insurance
Hun: ✈️ 👋 🖕
How delusional that your loved ones can’t even be concerned for your basic needs being met 😂
😭😭😭😭😂
Classic cult tactic, sadly.
She would have seemed more normal to keep it vague about people “being negative” but to use “we’re worried you don’t have health insurance”! It’s such a clear and gentle concern, how wild that she used that as her example!
Yeah I was going to say... that's a very legitimate concern!
I was shocked. I thought she at least say something like "are you sure this business is working" but she really said if my family cares about my need for health insurance and lack of then 🖕 them. Like the deluluness of it all
I don’t think the wages of employees should be on the customer. That law is so sleazy restaurant owners can afford to play their employees a minimum wage and if they can’t no one says to them “if you can’t afford to pay your employees don’t own a business” capitalism is so messed up. It has us convinced that WE are at fault that People’s wages are our responsibility when We don’t own a business.
The Monat tipper fail is even more insidious when you realize she originally wrote “$9.82”, but changed the 9 to a 8. You can clearly see the straight line of the 9 and how she went over the top and added a curve to the line to make it an 8. So not only did she tip less than 10%, but she took a dollar off of that! 😂 What a big spender!
I bet she remembered she had to compensate for the fees that go along with her company debit card. (To be fair, I don't know if the Monat debit card has fees. But when I worked in a call center, I was offered a company branded debit card for a "more convenient" way to receive my paycheck. There were so many sneaky little fees that went along with it that, if I used it like I used my regular bank's debit card, it would cost me about 5% of my paycheck every month. Hard pass.)
I'm guessing she only had 110 bucks on that debit card 🤣🤣🤣
Who knows too. Maybe she didnt pay with that card or it wasnt her bill to pay. Just bringing something to consider
@@cardcaptormyoki7345 Either way, the person paying gave less than a %10 tip. No amount of considering is going make this person look good 🤷♀️
@@avencree Can't accept that some people won't tip you? Get a new profession.
Another European here:
Tip culture and laws around it are *insane*. your EMPLOYER should be responsible for paying you a living wage, not your customer. Thankfully tipping here is just something you might do to round up a bill, or for extra good service.
I'm European and that tipping culture is completely incomprehensible to me. In normal countries employers pay the servers, not customers. Such madness only in USA 😂
I’ve started binging on anti-mlm content during these last few months. It all started when a former studdy buddy from uni got into Young Living. I had no idea that mlm’s even existed here in Sweden. Last year I noticed that my sister in law had tons of YL products at home. The more I found out about mlm’s and Young Living especially the more I noticed the lack of info on the internet about it translated into Swedish. So I’m now trying to do something about that, with taking the time to translate the Wikipedia pages into Swedish.
Translation into different languages is very important to do.
You're doing important work, because these MLMs will go international once the market's saturated in their home country.
Im not responsible for paying someones wage. We should be putting pressure on businesses that take advantage of servers and not the patreons
The tip thing in the states is so dumb. I used to manage restaurants in the UK. Tips were a great way of getting a snap shot on team interactions with customers. As all of our wait staff made at least minimum wage, those who would get high tips were clearly going over and above for their tables.
Despite what some people say we definitely have a tipping culture in the UK. Some of my best waiters would make an extra £100 tips over a 4 hour shift.
We would often use the amount of tips waiters made, to decide if it’s time to have the conversation with them as to whether or not they put themselves forward for a promotion.
Fair pay is beneficial to everyone involved. I will never understand why restaurants in the states think that the way they pay their team is acceptable.
Because in this country, we pay people less than they deserve and then dunk on them for being poor, all the while worshipping people that got rich through sheer dumb luck or from rich parents.

“When I go home and my mom is all ‘oh sweetie when are you going to get a job with insurance so you can get your scurvy fixed?’ I’m all ‘bye ma!’ I don’t need that negativity in my live as she slips an orange in my bag. Don’t keep the haters around, you know?”
I hate tipping culture. I hate that delivery now requires a tip before delivery. It defeats the purpose of tipping. I've only once tipped very poorly. The waiter brought food then disappeared. never refilled drinks. We were looking around the restaurant and no one noticed we had been done for a while and needed a check. There was only one other table of people. I was so mad and wanted to give no tip.
The "If you can't tip al least 20% then you can't afford to eat at that restaurant" argument is ridiculous and puts the blame exclusively in the consumer for not being able or willing to pay for an OPTIONAL fee. It's not and should not be a tax. Those prices should be included in the price of the products and give a decent wage to service workers, period.
It's not the waiters or service workers fault either, but judging people by tips is making a conflict between two groups of the same working class and not aknowledging the real issue coming from the government and the business owners.
Nailed it. I agree with you 100%
Agreed!!
That’s what people from other countries are saying. They don’t even understand tips. Tips should be abolished, and the restaurant itself should pay their workers a living wage. She’s coming from the view point of the waiter, because she and her husband used to do it while they were in college. I don’t think she meant it quite the way she said it, because we all know it’s not our job to make their check up to minimum wage. This mentality will stick with us until we start simply paying our waiters minimum wage to begin with. In California now, they are going to start paying $20 or $25 minimum wage, even if you work in fast food and can barely put a burger together without getting mayo or ketchup everywhere.
It's different in the UK but becoming more of a thing these days.
I agree, especially because I don’t believe everyone understands how the tipping system works. In my country, we only tip for the service (usually 10%), which means when the service is bad and waiters are rude we might choose not to tip or tip less - or tip more when the service is great. I think that’s quite acceptable and because some people tip more and others less, I’m sure it balances out when someone can’t or isn’t willing to tip 10%. But someone who treats themselves to an expensive meal (or even a meal that’s just expensive relative to what they’re earning) shouldn’t be the one who makes sure the waiter gets paid enough for their living costs. The business owner should pay their employees enough, as other employers are expected to, even if that means more expensive meals for the customer in the end. At least then the customer doesn’t need to feel guilty for not tipping, they just go to a less expensive place.
Commenting to say that I got to bring up the example of mlms being manipulative in my upper year college ethics course… I was so happy to finally talk about it academically 😂 I love these videos, thank you for being so consistent for us! Look forward to them every week
I wonder if anyone in your class was in one or was or knew someone close who was lol
That hun didn't tip more because she's not making minimum wage either lol
As someone who has had depression for most of my life and the past years have been my most difficult. I have Endometriosis, I desperately want more children, and that is not going to happen. I also will be having a hysterectomy next week. I am all kinds of emotional and struggling. If this company's products actually worked, doctors would be suggesting them, and people wouldn't have depression, anxiety and similar illnesses anymore. They simply do not work and preying on those who are struggling is very, very wrong.
Hoping the best for you in the coming weeks. So sorry for what you’re going through. Care for yourself like you would care for someone else you love and I hope your recovery from the surgery is smooth❤
I’m giving you a big hug. It’s so sad that you endured all of this. I wish you that things will get better.

Unrelated to the video but Hannah is a cat momma and I have to share! I just brought a new kitty home less than an hour ago. She is currently in hiding but I can't wait to watch your videos with a kitty on my lap! My first kitty passed away from old age three years ago after 17 wonderful years together, and I was waiting for the right moment to give another kitty a good home and love again. I feel so happy! 💗
This made my day!! Bringing home a new kitty is such a joy. Enjoy this special time!
Cat mommas unite! I remember bringing two home, and one hid under the couch. I lied on the floor with my hand outstretched for over an hour, just trying to get her used to my scent and my voice. 😂 I hope you bond quickly with your new baby!
I literally watched this video just now with my chonky tuxedo boi on my lap 🖤 (he's not overweight, just LORGE)
Congratulations on your new kitty!
At my college we were all required to go to a talk about scams and campus safety
I love to hear that!
Tipping culture is really wild. In Australia we don’t have tips and the fact that a server in America works their a$$ off their entire shift and their wage is paid by CUSTOMERS?! So… I’m going to a restaurant, paying $25 for food and then I have to add 20% to pay for the employee of someone else too??
No wonder so many people open restaurants in America. They get all these employees they don’t have to pay and keep all the extra money from not paying them because the customer is paying them.
I’m so glad we don’t have that crap here.
All the animals are trying to unalive you. Australia frightens me.
In the video you say "If you want to expose yourself as a lousy tipper" but it is not that Black and White. I definitely disagree with being implicated in the employment salary of a worker who isn't working for my own company, but I do not "punish" the server for that belief. I absolutely think that a restaurant that cannot afford to pay their servers an actual living wage should not be in business. The onus should NEVER be on the patron who simply shows up for a meal and service, and expects that cost to be included in the cost of the food. You say that if you can't afford a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat at that restaurant, but I say that if a restaurant can't afford to pay a living and decent wage, they can't afford to be in business. No one owes anyone a business. This demands that patrons subsidize the business owner's bad choices in launching something they can't afford to sustain. If I choose to go to a restaurant (which I do not anymore post-pandemic) I tip generously because it is not the fault of the server that the restaurant is doing this, but I do think the business owners should have the onus on them since they own the business. I do not own the business and am not responsible for the pay of the employees. We do not expect shoppers to pay the wages of cashiers at grocery stores or retail shops etc. Imagine buying milk and eggs and then having to pay the cashier for checking the items out, because the business decided they just don't want to pay them a proper and fair wage and then having everyone get hateful and angry with YOU instead of the busyness owner. The business owners are not held even the slightest bit responsible, and servers have been known to go outside and hunt down and scream at patrons who didn't tip them well, instead of choosing another line of work or going to the business owner and airing those grievances with how they're treated.
I almost guarantee she only has $110 on that card
At LEAST 20%. I like to eat out, but I'm not there to directly take care of other people's salary. I tip 20%, but why should I tip 1/4 of my bill or more extra just beause the owner can't pay his employees?
Just imagine if I took a photo of my debit card every time I went out to eat and tagged my company and thanked them. lol
It's so cringy!
And even worse, you showed your company what a horrible tipper you are.
I wanted to add something to the tip discussion. In addition to the tip credit there are a couple other points I don’t see brought up as often. 1) regardless of whether the server recieves a tip, they still have to tip the host, busser and bartender (if applicable) based on the sales total, about 4-5% is standard. 2) the irs taxes you on the tip, at a minimum of 10% of the sales total, regardless of if they actually get the tip. So if you do not tip, the server has to pay to have waited on you, first with the tipshare and then to irs. The whole system is broken, but not tipping is not the way to fix it.
I think about this issue often. I’m a very generous tipper but I’ve often wondered if we collectively could change the system to make these restaurant owners do their due diligence as employers… then I feel guilty when I realize that even if we got everybody in on it, most people would still be making ~$8/hr because minimum wage is so low. It all just sucks so I continue to tip generously and be kind to food service employees. But they deserve better than being reliant on customers’ understanding of etiquette 🥲
Tipping culture needs to go away.
@@eckillaas a country, we have tried multiple times. However, servers do NOT want to be paid a wage and prefer overwhelmingly to be on the tipped spectrum and lobbied against it.
My spouse and I tip between 20-50% depending on cost of the meal, so we definitely are not stingy tippers but I can’t help but resent the fact that servers (as a whole) literally blocked a set wage as the idea is that they can potentially make more and then they turned right around and complained about the variability.
@@ChimChamChambliss yes and ultimately that comes down to the fact that even with stingy tippers, servers *do* make more from being tipped because wages have not stayed consistent with cost of living. If servers were paid a more competitive wage than they make from tips, they would likely support the shift away from tipping. But again it falls back on employers being willing to share their profits instead of hoarding them, something that likely won’t change without a major societal & economic overhaul.
my old restaurant pooled tips and then tipped out nearly everyone it was outrageous by the time servers got it; we had next to nothing. they’re a VERY expensive james beard winning famous restaurant in philly 🙃
What's extra stupid about tipping culture is that it DOESN'T promote better service. It promotes desperation and bad behavior, like chasing people down. Good wages and respect promote good behavior and good service - Japan doesn't have a tipping culture, for example, and the service I got there was the most deserving of tips I've ever had. Because, you know, they can live off their wages.
I live in a country whih pays servers good wages and that tip credit thing you described is horrid. How could the restaurant just be pocketing that much money and leave the servers unpaid?! It should be illegal to pay people less than minimum wage that way. I will be avoiding those states like the plague from now on.
There is ONE time when I didn't tip, and that was because the server literally refused to serve us, and we had to get the food and drinks ourselves from the stations, then she screamed (literally) in my friend's face and threatened to beat my ass for asking her to stop. I get having a bad day, but she should have lost her job, in addition to the tip...
IOW: it takes a LOT to no longer deserve a tip in my book.
Hannah, love your content. But as for tips, please advocate for restaurants (etc) to have to pay at least minimum wage, not necessarily the customers having to pay server’s salaries. I waitressed for years, and I agree the way things are in the USA now is not fair to hard working servers. But the right answer is to mandate employers pay at least the minimum wage. Canadian servers no longer have a tipped wage and servers have to be paid at least minimum wage. Most people still tip, but now it IS extra for good service, not for servers to survive.
This may be common knowledge, but I'll put it anyway: Tip for quickly calculating tips: Look at the total, move the decimal over 1, then multiply that by 2. For example, let's say your total is $58.74. Moving decimal over 1 gives you $5.87 (basically $6).Then multiply by 2, which gives you $12. So you should tip **at least** $12 if you're dong the 20% thing.
That $8 on a $100 tab is.... wowzers...😬
its not my job to make sure the waiters make enough money to survive. its bad that it has come to this but im not responisble to fix it
A top leader that has a downline of 26k? That’s insane! How the heck she expects her downline to duplicate her success? It’s mathematically impossible.
My brain just experienced frame rate issues thinking about 26k people each with 26k in their downline
I know this was 1 year ago but I’m pretty sure her entire personal organization is 26000 meaning she recruited 10 who recruited 20 and now she has 30. Not 26000 personal recruits 😅
Ya! I prefer the fails over the horror stories.
You've got something for everyone, and I love it! ❤️
I prefer fails over horror stories for everyone *except* Hannah’s 😆. I love her horror story videos (and only hers).

When the servers get paid enough, tipping is not necessary. This is why American tipping culture is so weird to many European countries
T’was JUST binging the MLM playlist when the notification popped up 😂 Soooo binge-able, to the point where it’s so easy to come back and continually binge ❤
I would be so embarrassed to share that restaurant receipt as a form of bragging. My teenage daughter is a waitress and if a customer was proud to leave her an $8 tip on $100 bill I would ask her what she did wrong 🤦🏻♀️ (she has never once had a customer leave a credit and cash tip - the customers always leave either/or)
i GASPED when i saw the $8 tip. the server could dump a whole tray a drink on me and i’m still leaving something 😂 i’m going to hope she tipped the rest in cash (bc i try to tip in all cash when i can so some of my receipts say $0 on the tip) but we know how MLM huns are
I also almost always tip cash and write “cash” in the tip line.
Came here to say the same! Rolling in all that money, you’d think she could throw a $20 on there!
I can only think of one time in my whole life I've left a bad tip, and that only because the server completely forgot about us for about half an hour. All of the other times I've had a bad experience in a restaurant (which is rare), it was the fault of someone in the kitchen, and the server doesn't need to be punished for that.
@@AGK1999FE totally get it but that’s standard practice here!
@@just.R.A. i’m gonna start writing cash. that’s a good idea. thanks :)
Im from northern ireland, my sister has worked as a waitress for about 10yrs (at several different establishments). She earns minimum wage (which is close to £10 per hour), but she also gets to keep any tips she makes too. She lives off her tips. Im always so jealous lol
As a former waitress who worked at a restaurant that was popular with tourists, it's so frustrating when tourists don't understand that tips are absolutely necessary in the US. It's not their fault, but I know that my heart would always sink when I got a table from great Britian because I knew there was a good chance that they would think they were leaving a great trip but I MIGHT get 10%.
I get your point and think people should be aware of it, but for most European countries it is such a strange thing that the company is not paying the living wage... in my country we tip around 10% if we are happy with the service and it is for restaurants/cafes, none tips for doing nails or hair.
That’s amazing!👏👏👏
@@sarareimold3151 it's not "don't understand" tho, it's more "don't know". In my country tips are just an appreciation sign, you're not obliged to tip, and there is no "less than minimum wage" policy for waiters. I was shocked when I heard about that USA situation a couple of years ago from some other youtube video:(
@@Mirrima that's my point. They could be the nicest people but most just didn't know how tipping works in the US
How they handle the table is what I go on. If I get a server that is down right rude/snippy/ignores us for just being sat in your table I ask to move or for a new server. If that's not an option we leave unless we've ordered already while waiting to be moved. Then we get it to go and leave $5 for "to go" service at that point. I don't give good money away for being a shitty person. If they're apologetic for "insert literally any reasonable event here" then I let it slide but if they can't do that.. byeeee
Being polite at your job is what ya signed up for, at least try to be nice/apologetic to those that have nothing to do with the situation that caused the servers attitude.
One hundred percent agree. I don't agree with Hannah to tip even for crap service because "you don't know what they're going through." I'm sorry for what they might be going through, but I'm a nurse, and I certainly can't slack off because I'm having a hard day. Which is every day.
@michelleprieur1 exactly. I never got tipped/promoted/given a raise for being in a bad mood. Everyone has their own opinion on it but to tip 20% for shit service is not gonna happen, and that even comes from my SO who worked in the service industry for years.
The only time I have not ever tipped was when our server didn't do more than take our order and bring our check and another server picked up the slack. We ended up walking what would have been our tip to the server that actually served us.
32:21 also it’s not a customers responsibility to paid employee wages. That’s on the business. I cannot believe how low your minimum wage is! I was get the equivalent to that in aud at 15! Wtaf?!?!
AHHHHHHH! MLM sellers is not entrepreneurs!!! Why can't they get that through their head? Also, if I work for Walmart, my family and friend's don't have to buy at Walmart to support me.
9:55 About the Monat rep saying they are an entrepreneur- It made me think that as an MLM rep they are even lower than the bottom of the company because they are actually the customer. Not close to the CEO at all. They are the ones stuck over-buying products to remain active and having to pay to try the new skincare and lifestyle products. It’s sad but they aren’t even really as involved in the company as a sales person is at a traditional business.
I worked at a sleazy restaurant in high school who made certain they never had to pay us more than the bare minimum $2.13 an hour. They did this by having us print out a slip every night showing how much money we sold in food for that shift, multiplying that by like 10% and putting that down as the amount we made in tips. There were nights I literally didn’t make a single dollar but had to write down that I’d made $70+ in tips. I didn’t realize at the time what was going on and I wish now that I had known. They shut down not long after I quit. What a terrible place.
I love your rant advocating for restaurant workers. It's so important that we as a community look out for each other and do we what we can to make sure that everyone's needs are met. Like most people, I think it's outrageous that restaurant owners can get around paying their workers a liveable wage. Minimum wage is already so terrible: I think it's despicable that they have a loophole where they can pay workers even less. I want restaurant employees to be making a good wage so that my tip can be extra money, because that's what they deserve. They deserve a guaranteed income where they know exactly how much money they can count on, paid by their employer. But it's not a moral victory to refuse to tip and purposefully take money away from servers just because we want the system to be different. It hurts the server only. We have to actually fight for better working conditions and benefits for them. Call our legislators, unionize, demonstrate. Actually get together to make a difference instead of just refusing to tip and getting on a high horse to make ourselves feel better for not tipping.
Ugh, you said this so much more eloquently and concisely than I could have! Thank you!!
fr tho. I made minimum wage + tips at a Chinese restaurant in my area and some of my other friends in hospitality considered me lucky. I sure did. it was good bc my boss owned the restaurant with her husband and there were like three or four other employees at a time, not including myself. we were a small group that looked out for each other. my boss' mom came to the States and it just got better. she used to make employee meals for us at the end of the night. if someone came in or called in an order while we were eating, my boss or her husband would take the order and they would make it so us employees could eat. that's probably one of the best experiences I've ever had working in food. I didn't make a lot, but I did have a good time.
@@HannahAlonzo You are part of the reason why employers get away with this though? Yes it's nice to tip but a lot of people can't afford to and don't have the option of just not eating out because they meed just that little bit of energy to actually go and get income to be able to tip in the first place.
What you said comes from a place of priveledge and it's really upsetting to see this. Paying the employees is the owners job, end of; and it CANNOT fall on the customers. Instead take action and that isn't just voting that's outright not working at the place that refuses to pay you, because relying on the generosity of other people isn't good; it's dangerous and how a lot of people get swept up into MLM's LIKE DOORDASH.
@@Cadapech Employers get away with it because federal law has a lower minimum wage for servers. That’s not Hannah’s fault at all, and people in poverty shouldn’t want more to BE in poverty because they don’t do their part.
@@Cadapech I see what you mean, it is a similar moral issue than that of giving money to homeless people. Isn't your good deed actively supporting that the issue continues? The idea that giving fat tips will only feed the cycle: employers don't need to pay their servers more because they make fat tips, so you keep paying fat tips to make up for their salary. But there could also be made a point for devaluation of that work class because people accept to be underpaid. If no one accepted such a low salary, employers would have to raise the pay to be able to hire anyone, but because some people are so desperate they will take anything, employers get away with it, and some people may not even realize that they are somewhat contributing for their own devaluing.
Also, when you go to a food place you know you need to give a fat tip because the server doesn't make even minimum wage without it, you are not only supporting that individual, you are giving money to the owners that underpays their employees. Is this also okay? Wouldn't it be better to only support places that do what is morally right, paying their servers fairly, and boycotting those that don't? Like Hannah said "if you can't tip 20%, you can't afford to eat at that restaurant", couldn't we make the argument for "if you can't pay all your servers minimum wage, you can't afford to have a business/restaurant"? In that, if restaurants close because people won't support it for this issue, they actually couldn't afford to be open, be it a big or small business.
And I think a lot of people see eating out as a luxury, not thinking that, for some people, it is their only option (lack of time to buy groceries and cook, having a long commute that doesn't allow them to eat at home, not having a place to store home-packed meals at their work/school and many other possible circunstancies) and those people may be counting their pennies to pay for their meal. I think the point Hannah made about tips did not refer to those people that need to eat out and can't spare money, but about eating out exclusively as a luxury and being stingy about it.
Now, all of this is just food for thought, I don't think there is a black and white conclusion on what should be done by individuals, as everyone has their own opinions and reasoning for what they do and none of them are wrong, as there is no denying that servers being underpaid is a serious problem that needs to be fixed by the government and authorities.
I am particularly very against tip culture, as it is an employer's responsibility to pay their workers and people are doing the job they were paid to do, so tips should be reserved to exceptional service. It is also not fair to put that burden into a customer's backs. But I am also NOT from the USA, those politics do not apply here, so I say everything from a very removed standpoint, as I've never lived or known people personally that lived through it. Again, just food for thought coming from an outside perspective.
Thank you for explaining tip credits. I worked at a steakhouse in NJ from 2002 to 2006 and was paid $2.15 an hour. My paychecks were typically $0 due to taxes and social security, etc. I don’t agree with it, but I obviously didn’t have a say in the matter. There were plenty of times that I got tipped poorly because the restaurant was out of something or the cook overcooked the steak, the salad bar was out of something, whatever- nothing to do with me. Please, please tip your servers well, or don’t go out to eat. They depend on you to pay their bills.
I don't understand this. Why would anyone work somewhere where you don't get paid?? This is why tipping is actually really bad! It encourages you to take all the risk of the restaurant onto yourself, and work for free for the restaurant hoping to get enough tips for it to be worth it. The restaurant OWNER should be taking on the risk, and should be paying you at least minimum wage regardless of how generous or rich the customers are, or how busy the restaurant happens to be. This restaurant took advantage of you, just like an MLM. And the tipping customers aided it, just like people buying MLM products. That restaurant should not be able to find willing employees when they refuse to pay a stable minimum wage. Why wouldn't you work a more stable job which isn't a scam instead? Probably because sometimes the tips were good. In other words, tips tricked you into letting yourself be taken advantage of.
@@FireVixen164 And yet, when people quit the restaurant industry in droves over the past few years, customers were mad about that because everything took longer. SHOULD restaurant owners take the risk? Of course. But they don’t, and they don’t have to, so if you’re going to frequent them, understand that and do your part. Or don’t complain when things take forever because servers took your advice and quit. And also, like with many things in the country, you can thank racism for the low minimum wage for servers. 🙃🙃
@@FireVixen164 ya because everyone has the option to not work there…. What about the mom who can only get to work as a server bc no othrt job works with her kids schedule ? Or the man without a car and is in walking distance ? So many other options
This sucks so much. From what I know from my history in the food branche in the Netherlands, we do not have that, but I still try to tip. Our normal tips are around 10%. How horrible that you are not paid for the hard work that is waiter. I've only worked in lunchrooms, so our rush hours were early morning or around 1 pm. But yeah, you're walking, standing up, killing your back. So weird you are not compensated for it. I hope most customers are at least nice.
@@FireVixen164 other commentators attacked you, but I can see your point. The fact that people have just accepted these t&c so tacitly IS the problem. If more people boycotted restaurants that don't pay their employees, and if less people wanted to work for them, then that would naturally force the policy and businesses to change! Honestly, as a European it's shocking to hear about these horrible work conditions in the US, as well as the tipping culture.
The college I went to out-right banned MLM advertising and recruitment on campus after several known human traffickers posing as members of Vector Cutco went around the dining centre trying to "recruit" female students for a "job opportunity." Thankfully someone caught on to who the people actually were, called the local police and they were arrested. Not wanting to risk another incident like that the college banned Vector Cutco and other MLM's from recruiting on campus
When I was a server, we were supposed to report our tips at the end of the shift, and if it didn't calculate out to be at least minimum wage per hour, the employer is required to pay the amount to get it up to minimum wage, and it's added to the paycheck. My fellow servers would often *not* report their tips, which I would think would make the employer make up the difference to minimum wage *plus* them getting to keep their tips separately (aka kinda cheating the system)? So unless employers were breaking the law and not paying the amount required to make up to minimum wage per hour, servers should not be only making $2-$3/hour. That's my understanding of it based on my own experience and having the requirements explained to me.
Thank you for talking about tipping! When I saw the 8% I was shocked, and felt bad for the server. I bet if the server was a woman she tried to pitch her "the opportunity" 🙄
As a European, it never ceases to shock me when I hear about the tipping culture in the USA. I mean, I think you probably hear it a lot from people who don't live in America and I am sure it gets tiring, for that I am sorry, but it also still baffles me every time I hear about it. I hope that some things will change in the future because it's just wild that employees can pay someone $1.50/hour and get away with it.
Living in Europe myself i still make a point of tipping really well because I have experienced first hand how tough working as a waitress is and how minimum wage is truly not enough compensation for that
the servers name was Kevin but hey you never know in 2023 lmao
Gosh the tipping culture in the US is driving me nuts as a French person. I wholeheartly agree with you that as long as this system exists, people should be tipping accordingly.
However, there really needs to be a bigger conversation on how to dismantle this system because it is outrageous!
The prices in US restaurants are in no way cheaper than in restaurants in France and yet here the service workers are being paid at least minimum wage!
Restaurants owners in the US are just unbelievably greedy and exploitative and the fact that the lawmakers are accomodating them to this extent, is mind blowing. END THIS MADNESS PEOPLE!!! ✊
Blows my mind how tips work there 😢 here is Australia we split tips or get all of our own tips but we also get minimum wage and as a grown adult that’s $23 minimum for my age and experience 😢
what do you pay towards taxes on the 23 an hour pay?
@@MrsMuffin11 nothing until $18,200 then 19% from $18,201-$45,000 over $45,000-120,000 it’s 32.5% that includes our public doctor medical care.
@@MrsMuffin11 if I include the tax offset for low income earners you would pay max $2924.25 on $41,775 income then of course deductions
@Nit Pickers Head Lice Removal ah. for us you pay zero in taxes and get money up until 17k. then after that it's around 15%. I would hate to pay 33% taxes regardless of "free health care". to pay that much in taxes you would have to be making almost 6 figures
@@MrsMuffin11 that’s the difference between you and me then I’m happy to pay more from my much larger income to pay for any medical needs and all others who need medical care regardless of income in my country may need. Just remember if I work at a restaurant and I get $23 an hour here if I earn less than 18k I don’t pay any taxes (unlike the 10%+12% very low incomes pay in say america) and I would get free medical care, if I have kids they get free medical care from a Panadol at a emergency department to an emergency surgery, hospital stay and all medications, doctors, specialists and devices to assist recovery at home. I don’t pay a single cent so when I earn over that amount I am more than happy to pay the extra 9% more tax than other countries may pay.
Always Hannah uploading on the days I need it the most 😂 💕 🎉
Tipping is ALSO a way to support predatory systems. If people stopped tipping, restaurant owners would be forced to compensate workers fairly.
Of you're tipping over 5% or tipping at all when the person simply did their job (nothing outstanding), you're part of the problem
Not to change the subject, I wish tipping in the US would simply stop. (Ftr, I always budget for tipping, and I tip based on service; there have been a total of 2 times in my adult life that I left nothing). I've lived in Europe multiple times, and in virtually every other developed country, tipping is very rare. They have this crazy idea that the employers are responsible for paying the employees a living wage. And no, their restaurants are not more expensive based on their average wages than ours.
My first thoughts after seeing her picture of the receipt was “You didn’t tip enough” 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ we always tip 5 dollars a person which is normally 20-25% not sure if this was because I once also worked for tips at $2.00 an hour but I believe in tipping the 20% also!!!
Rather than saying people should tip at least 20% maybe waiting staff should do something about their employers not paying at least minimum wage. People need to stand together and refuse to work for any less.
Can I move to the planet you live on where bottom-barrel employees have power?
@@WestonDion I hear what you are saying but if no one ever fought for what was right lots of things would never change. You deserve a proper living wage and employers shouldn’t be able to not pay well because people will tip. Tips should be a little extra for a job well done, not the basis of your wage.
@@JoolsVoiceOver Correct, but if your “fight” is just not tipping servers, or tipping them poorly, you’re just hurting the working people you allegedly want to help and restaurant owners keep making the same money and don’t feel it or give a shit. If I serve a table with a $200 check and get a $0 tip, I just paid $10 to serve you so you could… make a point? Meanwhile I’m trying to eat and pay rent.
@@WestonDion you have picked me up wrong, I am not saying people shouldn’t tip I am saying employers should pay decent wages. I am in the UK so it doesn’t work the same, we tip to say ty for good service but the staff also get a wage so if they don’t get tips they can still live.
I was a server for a hot minute and will not ever do it again so I always tip 20% when we go out to eat because customers are down right terrible. Thank you for advocating for servers!
I am lucky to have only ever lived in countries where people have to be paid for their work, so it's not expected of customers to tip. Sometimes you can leave a small tip as a show of gratitude for good service (depending on the country, they might or might not appreciate it) but the server doesn't rely on anyone's goodwill to survive.
Yes to your tipping policy! I always ask people if they tip before I go out with them because once I was MORTIFIED to go out with a woman who ordered $300 worth of food & didn’t tip a cent. A cent! I felt like I had to add the 20% she should have left on her bill to my tip to make up for her stinginess, especially because our wait staff was fabulous. Never again!
4:09 I’m sorry they get how much?!?! I emailed Arbonne Australia and asked if reps get bonuses for recruiting and they said no! I’m gonna have to look further into that
Maybe it's illegal in Australia to do that so they took that out of compensation plan there?
@@brucheweinberger6863 idk I’m going to be looking into it for sure
On the tip story, we always tip 20%, but the other day when we went to the restaurant, the waiter was really good so we tipped 30%.
American former server and bartender. I hate our tip culture. It’s not about affording. If the three tables you served in one hour gave you $5 each, you made well over the minimum wage. But the reality is those three tables are tipping $15 each so they’d make $45 that hour. Beyond making well over minimum wage, they’re making a more “livable wage” than most of us & they evade taxes.
But on the video topic, yeah 8% tip is not a flex 😂
The only time we left a less than 20% tip was when the server literally yelled at me to hurry up and take my plate out of her hands because it's hot. No joke, no exaggeration. That was her doing and no one else's. No excuses for yelling at the customers to serve themselves. I also don't leave tips in these places where I pick up my own order. Starbucks has added a tip option to their credit card machine. Tacky.
I mean people tip at bars. Starbucks employees definitely deserve tips for wonderful service.
I tip $1 per drink at Starbucks. I'll even leave quarters if I don't have cash. But I will never not tip at a coffee shop.
I tip at my local fast Asian food place, they work pretty hard to make sure my order is correct and they somehow don't lose my order. I respect what they do (and it's good quality.) I go for 10% though. And dislike tipping culture.
I tip at drive thrus when I see it's very busy but moving fast.
I appreciate the effort the employees put in to keep things moving.
Excited for this! Thanks for making another work day that much better!
There's one big thing you missed on your critique of the Amare girl and her recruitment course. The idea of double-dipping by selling her downline the training is far from being the big ticket outcome of her strategy. If she focusses on showcasing her recruitment success and selling her recruitment course, her primary target market will be people who have big goals, big belief and little success in other MLMs. MLMers are chronic for opportunity jumping, so if she paints herself as the answer they are looking for and the key to making all of their goals and dreams come true, there will be a large number of them who will take the course and then join her team. The recruitment course IS the recruitment tool.
The Amare rep who told the story about the new rep getting 25 responses to her post and how much money she will make. This assumes all 25 people purchased the product and didn't decline when they were told the cost or discovered it was an MLM.
wouldn't it make sense to not tip in order to force owners to pay their employees minimum wage?
Owners don’t care. That’s why people are leaving the service industry.
I loved your rant on tip credit! I worked at a Steakhouse early 2000 and was astonished, sometimes angry at what people would consider a nice tip...a $50 check, wonderful service, to end up with $2!! Or $2.01, like that penny meant something, lol. My parents always tipped extremely well growing up, so I just thought that was common, until I grew up and worked in a restaurant myself. I no longer work in that setting, but I always advocate when it comes up, to help people realize what servers are getting paid and how a tip should be figured. I used to think it was common sense, but apparently some people don't realize, so I think it's great you took the time to explain it!💛 Not to mention, in some restaurants, the servers are required to give a percentage of their tips to hostesses, bartenders, ect...so again, thanks for the awareness!!
American tipping culture has always seemed wack to me. A tip should be a tip a.k.a something extra on top of a propper wage not instead of.
@Puan I wish the US didn't do it. I've lived in Europe, and it's virtually unheard of.
I'd advocate that the employer should be appropriately paying their employees at least minimum wage and anything on top of that is a bonus. If an employer can't afford to pay their workers minimum wage then they have no business running a business but that's just my opinion. Until then, I give 20% on top of the bill. I hate tipping culture though because it's exploitative.
100% agree!
Thank you Hannah for explaining to people how to tip... Love your channel!!
Boy, I have a BA in communication and there are a TON of scammy "business opportunities" being targeted at comm and marketing students. I went on one job interview for a company that seemed legit in the job ad, but the interview had some major red flags. Told my folks about it and my dad said "it's a scam, block their number"
I'm on vacation in Sint Maarten and got to listen to your Monday video and today's video on the beach with a cocktail! Your videos made my vacation that much better!
I got into Arbonne about 15 years ago to make extra money. I ended up with cases of unsold products in my apartment and a feeling of failure. I can personally attest IT is absolutely an MLM, especially after attending a hype-up meeting by my upline ppl.
Thank you for all your work to shed light on MLM and social media predatory businesses
Let’s get 100 of us to donate $1 so we can get into that teaching course and see what’s up 😂
Love binging your videos and I also listen to it in the background while working. Dunno why your voice is quite soothing :)
I love drawing while I watch these so thank you so much for being so good at reading the captions and describing the video
You’re just amazing! Thanks for awesome content. Hope you and your sweet little baby are feeling amazing today!!
just finished watching the whole antimlm playlist last night so I needed this!
You mentioned in an earlier video that you find it funny that people from other countries watch your videos. Well, greetings from Switzerland, I love your videos!!
Maybe Arbon has an invisible CEO. I really don't get that these people, who are contractors, not even employees feel like they are high up in the company. It doesn't matter if the name of the level sounds good, you are not in charge, you actually have lots of people above you, using you.
Eloquent and instructive as always! Thank you for these videos!
Brazilian reais aren't worth much, but wanted to say thank you anyways 😅
Can we stop saying "if you can't tip at least 20% you can't afford to eat at that restaurant" and start saying "if you can't pay your employee minimum wage you can't afford to own a restaurant"
We say both things. But at the moment it’s true that, if you go out to eat and can’t tip, you’re costing someone else money so you can get served. More accurately it’s “I know that restaurants aren’t paying servers fairly but I don’t care and I want to eat out so my server can lose money by serving me”
Thank you soooooo much for educating the peoples about tipping your servers! Much appreciated by a server for life! 🥰
I am an actual entrepreneur, with an actual small business, and it makes me sick how the US deals with health insurance. I'm about a month from going and getting a job at a place where I can be offered affordable health insurance and just take those hours away from my small business, because it is SO expensive to pay for it out of pocket when you are self-employed. It is RIDICULOUS.
I'm not gonna magically stop tipping well, but I do find it absolutely disgusting that tip culture essentially feeds into the whole idea that we are the ones paying the servers and not the employers, so wages get ridiculously lower and lower until our tips are the only thing that can keep the waiter/waitress afloat. It's a vicious, unfair cycle.
Always proud to be an ASU alum and this video made me even more proud of them taking direct steps to protect students. Every college should teach students about avoiding scams like that when they first become students or are getting ready to graduate and go into the job market.
as someone who works part time for tips your words really gave me a lil bit more hope in humanity. i've heard waaaay too many people say we don't deserve tips for clicking buttons on a screen (if you've worked in service you know that its never just clicking buttons, i fkn wish!!) so i'm just very grateful for people like you for educating people on how tipping can affect your wage so significantly in the us
Thank you for talking about how important tipping is in the US! I'm thankful growing up that was 1 thing my dad always made sure we understood was how to tip properly and now as an adult I always want to just pay the bill and have people pay us back just so I can make sure the server gets tipped enough. It infuriates me to see a receipt after a meal and know that someone left a bad tip.
I go to Penn State and got a very similar email a few weeks ago about job scams from the career services office!!
Great video as per usual 👏🏼
I feel like it comes off a bit privileged to say that if you can't tip a lot you shouldn't be eating out. Those same minimum wage workers should also be able to go out to eat every once in a while without having to spend all their money on tips. It just goes round and round. The customer shouldn't have to be responsible for an employee's wage. That's so fucked up. Can't even imagine the pressure working in an environment like that.
Have to say hannah I love your style, it allows me to listen to anti mlm around my toddler during the day. Aka the parrot. Then I listen to CC at night 😆
Also on the tips, it doesn't just go to the server. It goes to the bussers, the cooks, everyone in the back etc. I don't know if all restaurants are like this but the one I almost worked at was like this. I ended up not staying with the job for different reasons. But that was a shocker.
At LEAST %20??
That feels like a really entitled perspective.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
