You can't live the way YOU want...almost like if you want a better QoL you should obtain some education and or skills and make more $ not demand other people give you free $ because you want it

In other words, the people he looks down on, whom he doesn't believe should earn enough to live, ought to be well spoken, polite, articulate white Americans of means. He thinks the jobs he doesn't want to do, doesn't want to pay for, should really be done by soft spoken college grads. He thinks that would vastly improve his life, if he didn't have to gaze at darkies anymore.

Zero ability to explain how Yale graduates are going to start delivering his food, for, again, according to him, notip.

i assume he is not a great tipper considering stance. which means he is actually one of the biggest beneficiaries of tipping culture. if he's tipping below average then he's freeriding and would pay more if waiters were compensated the exact same amount from wages but tipping was eliminated.

You might as well say you hate sales people too. What is sales if not a good looking, confident, well spoken person to interface with.

basically all the money salesmen make is equivalent to a tip. Recall Jay Leno talking about how he'd never buy a new Ferrari because he thinks it's disgusting how much they make you "tip" the sales guy for the privilege of picking out one of their cars.

I think part of it is the tipping aspect where you're supposed to choose how much someone's value is to you. For instance with pilots, you don't negotiate with them over the cost of flying you. Hotels are included. But with waiters you are in the driver's seat. Given the option, he simply doesn't think the juice is worth the squeeze. If it was all included he probably wouldn't complain like they do in Europe. But then again the service in Europe is horrendous and slow so there you go, it's a trade-off I guess.

Ultimately he really does look down on working people. If you covet his lifestyle, you should have to earn it, and it's not going to happen with some low-level prole job. After all, a waiter could never get into OSU or Fordham Law and work for a year in biglaw before retiring.

Tips do work in competitive markets to draw talent to the top places. In other words, the fact that tipping is usually 20% means in NYC at places like Le Bernardin where the average ticket is over $1,000 and a server can expect to be earning $500+ per shift. That means that you are attracting people to waitering who could be teachers, accountants, chefs, etc. These people are much more capable than what you get in flyover county where a waiter can expect like $150 per shift.
