Tipping Culture Exposed: The Real Cost of Minimum Effort
What if the real issue isn’t tipping—it’s entitlement?
In this episode, I break down a trending video claiming, “If you can’t afford a 30% tip, don’t go out to eat.” But is that really about fairness… or have we lost the plot on what it means to earn your way?
From my early days bussing tables to leading teams today, I’ve seen both sides of the service industry—and I’m sounding the alarm on how performance-based opportunities are being rejected in favor of clocking in and doing the bare minimum.
We’ll unpack:
The danger of confusing time with value
Why effort-based compensation leads to real freedom
How tipping culture reflects a deeper mindset problem
What I’ve learned as both a worker and an employer
If you’re tired of minimum effort being celebrated while true contribution gets ignored, this one’s for you.
