higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs
Went to a restaurant in LA today and when I got the check I noticed that it was a bit higher than it should be. Then I noticed this 18% service charge. So... We, as customers, need to help pay for their servers instead of the owners paying their servers a living wage. And on top of that they have suggested tip. I called bs on this. I will bet you that the servers do not see a dime of this 18% service charge. [deleted a word so it wasn't a grammatical horror to read]

Because then the owner can't advertise a lower price for the food and then sneak in the hidden "service fee" at the end.
That should be considered bait and switch.
It's pretty much the dictionary definition of bait and switch fraud, yeah. Whether it de jure is in a legal system so obviously disfavoring workers in the vast majority of cases is another matter entirely, though 😮💨
