Basically, the issue of wages is not my problem, so this whole discussion becomes absurd. Do I want to leave compensation for the worker? Does he deserve an extra out of my pocket? Did he do something for me that exceeds his job functions and I can appreciate? If he brings me a plate of food for which I'm going to be charged, it is unlikely to fall under these conditions.

It is your problem - that's your meal he's spitting in. Justified or not

Nobody is going to spit in your food, but staff will think you’re an asshole (and sometimes confront you).
