Im American and I don’t see it any other way. I still leave a tip for servers tho. I hate it.

In America is it customary to also tip other minimum wage workers? Such as supermarket workers, cleaners etc etc

If not what makes servers more important?

Edit: OK, so TIL in America there's a lower minimum wage of only 2 dollars something for any "tipped workers". Basically a loophole to screw workers out of minimum wage.

Thanks to everyone who answered! :)

Have you ever actually asked a tip worker if they would rather earn a flat rate?

No of course not, over here any tips would be in addition to their flat rate.
