'This is not what our guests are used to, but... it is the right thing to do': Restaurant owner informs diners that they shouldn't tip servers, faces online backlash from skeptical waiters

This restaurant owner has an idealistic way of running their eatery, but online, people are totally divided on the idea. 

It seems like the topic of tipping is everywhere these days. More and more establishments are incorporating tipping into their business models. From coffee shops to restaurants to food trucks, almost anywhere you get food these days is going to have an iPad screen asking if you'd like to tip 20, 25, or 30 percent on that meal you just bought. Though this can be lucrative for servers, customers can get quite fatigued of this constant extra tipping that adds up over time. One restaurant owner thinks they have the answer to this: eliminate tipping and build a better environment for their workers. 

The owner has laid out their rules, and its main purpose is to reassure customers about why their prices may be higher than expected. Although servers in the comments section disagreed with this person's methods, it couldn't hurt to try out a tip-free restaurant meant to benefit workers and see if it's a viable business idea. 

Up next, this young employee was promised a raise when they turned 16 years old, only for their boss to refuse and cause them to quit on the spot.
