I believe servers and bartenders deserve a living wage. Our culture is tipping until there is a complete paradigm shift. I've always been a good tipper ($1 drink at the bar or around 20% for food), but it is now out of hand. Three times in the last month I have had lunch or dinner at places outside of Seattle and its minimum wage law and am seeing $10 for house wine and $20 for a burger after cheese and a side are added. The server then comes out and the paper, or those stupid clunky hand held machines, is put in front of me asking for 18-23%. What in the shit? I'm not paying an extra $20 for two people to sit at a chain restaurant in Southcenter. I remember when 20% was a fucking amazing
