Let's finish what I said:

don't point your frustration at the proletarians who rely on your tips to survive.

I'm not saying to never ever point your frustration at proletarians. Sometimes we are assholes. I am absolutely frustrated at proletarians who deliberately make both of two choices: (1) get food from restaurants, which is an unnecessary luxury one can choose to live without, and (2) choose not to subsidize the delivery driver's wage, which is unfortunately the social contract which has been imposed upon us. If you did only one of these things, I wouldn't care.

When I worked in food service, I worked there because it was literally all I could get. Most of us, for practical purposes, do not choose food service, because the other "choices" are misery and poverty (more than food service already entails). Hence why I said "don't point your frustration at the proletarians who rely on your tips to survive," because we lack the freedom to choose a better line of work. If you can afford to go out to eat, you can afford to tip; you have the freedom to not be a part of the situation. Even though we are both proletarians, within our class, there exist various economic disparities and other social hierarchies which we must be careful not to reinforce.

The fact that is composes most of your wages is not the fault of the Patreons coming to the establishment who are also required to pay ridiculously high prices on low quality food, and then also tip for the right to do so.

No, patrons literally do not have to go to restaurants.

Tip is meant as extra on a job done well behind expectations.

Not trying to be contentious but I have to say it: this is capitalist brainworms. This is how capitalists want us to think. This is their narrative, but it's not what is enshrined in law. What's enshrined in law is that you can legally refuse to pay a driver for a portion of their services.

One last thing, what's so special about the driver, waiter and bartender that puts them in the tip-getting status? What about the cooks, busboys, cleaning, host/hostess etcetc

Yeah I do not agree with the existence of tipping culture. It should be abolished. Unfortunately, tipping culture is legally enshrined in , so ignoring it before it is abolished is tantamount to withholding a driver's pay. Where I worked, drivers were paid less than inside staff to account for the fact that we got tips. This is an unacceptable practice, but it is enshrined in law. Everyone on this godforsaken planet deserves equal access to the fruits of labor.
