Reservoir Dogs | Mr. Pink Doesn't Tip
Ойын-сауық
Reservoir Dogs is streaming now for free on Peacock: www.peacocktv.com?cid=20200101evergreenownyt002&
Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi) sees what's wrong with society, sure, but he still won't fork over a measly buck-let him tell you why he's taking a stand against the socially prescribed institution of tipping in the opening scene from Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs.
SYNOPSIS:
Thieves ponder the identity of the traitor in their midst in the violent aftermath of a failed jewelry heist.

For most people in the US, Mr. Pink is the odd one out. For most people in the rest of the world, he's the only normal person in the room.

Everyone is foreshadowed in a way. Look how Mr. White sympathizes with Mr. Pink and right from the start we can see the conflict regarding their "ethics", which we would see when Mr. Pink perceives that there's a mole in the crew and when Mr. White tries to aid for Mr. Orange after he is shot. And of course, Mr. Orange already telling on Mr. Pink, but also the part that he ends up "convinced" by Mr. Pink, in a way trying to blend in with the crew. Anyways, great dialogue.

Mr Pink wasnt ahead his time. The discussion has been a debate for decades. That's why there are laws since 80s, per state, that ensure an employer has to adjust the waiting staffs pay to the COLA, Cost of Living Adjustment, if they don't receive enough tips. IE If a Waiter, Bartender, etc. makes $2.50 an hour. They are adjusted to the either minimum wage or wage agreed upon employment.
1:45 he did not listen to a word pink just said. he lived off min wage without tips!!! your question has already been answered with his own experience of doing it without tips.

Yeah, that's what tipping is about, not about paying their wages since that's their employer's job.
The only tip I have for a waitress is : "Get a better paying job"
I like the whole debate about whether, to tip or not to tip. Just order the whole menu, that's the tip.
Edward Bunker (Mr. Blue) wrote a great Autobiography.
Such a great scene I think of any time I'm picking up an order in person, and I decline the tip option for a cashier simply doing their job.
Funny how it was 12% then. Now it's minimum 20%. You get a side-eye if you tip 15%. Meanwhile the minimum wage stays the same. The prices go up and the food is worse quality. And now the fast food workers want tips.
I swear, since moving to the states this topic of tipping is intensely delicate.
Genius by Tarantino, I loved this movie growing up
Hillarious to see Tarantino just sit there chuckling at his won script. Btw, I am with Mr. Pink on this one, socialism and all.
This scene has everything. Psychology, sociology, even macroeconomics and microeconomics.
Orange snatched his tip back quick, kind of shows his hand here.
