As some of you may or may not know, I'm heavily into serious bodybuilding and a few of my bro's and I had a revelation when we were shredding our lats at the gym: Why do we tip someone for just doing their job, which consists of handing us a plate of food or bringing us a round of drinks?
It barely counts as real work, so we've formed a FB page and held some events with smashing success.
Our group is called "Bodybuilders Against Tipping"
https://www.facebook.com/bodybuildersagainsttipping
There has been a lot of backlash from the service industry, but that's understandable when you create an important movement.
One of our leaders likes to call himself a "modern day Rosa Parks" which I find both hilarious and true.
In just a few months we have amassed nearly 2,000 group likes and our momentum is gaining almost as much mass as my pecs after a superset of flies.
Some info from our FB page:
About
As bodybuilders we are uniting and letting it be known that tipping should be abolished. Serving food and drinks does not warrant a tip. Anyone can do this
Description
It is time for tipping to cease. It takes zero skill to serve food and drinks. If anything we should be tipping people that maintain traffic lights, elevators and keep are roads safe. They are the real workers of this country and you dont EVER see them complaining about not getting tipped!
Only lazy people think they are entitled for tips for doing THEIR JOB!
Join the movement!
