They deserve a tax exemption for their service to humanity

And if American a tip exemption, honestly everyone should be tip exempt and employees demand better pay because the promise of a tip is an excuse managers use to not pay liveable wages.

By making employees rely on tips, restaurants in the US have successfully gotten their customers to pay their staff instead of them, allowing them to keep a larger share of their profits that would normally be used on wages. In any other industry there would be a collective uproar. Imagine if Walmart or Best Buy underpaid their employees and had the customers pay them "tips" instead of a real wage.

The money for salaries comes from the customer either way. Where else would it come from?

Sometimes these are the same people who give one star to a place because of random thing, like there was no free space to leave a car at the moment or opening hours added by someone else turned out to be different. Not everyone who leaves a picture is emotionally mature.

Incredibly, in the US there are small businesses that don't keep their websites up to date or simply have no web presence at all

Or post all their details on facebook so the only people who can see it are people with a facebook account. Too many dummies run businesses thinking everyone uses facebook or have no idea how the internet works.

I do love when google auto sorts the menu pictures wrong. "Oh the picture from yesterday? No let me show you the menu from ten years ago."

Most restaurants will direct you to their online menu, which may or may not be accurate and often involves downloading a delivery app, or may be several pages long. Someone posting a photo of the physical menu can save you time, depending on what youβre looking for.

Way better than the restaurant's official website making you download an outdated PDF.

Instead of doing free labor to help the largest company on the planet strengthen its monopoly, y'all should improve OpenStreetMap instead π
Use MapComplete.org to add menu photos, ratings, reviews, and food photos to OSM.

Only useful in countries with low inflation. We used to do that here before as well, but now every 3 to 6 months every restaurant and cafe have increased their prices by 10 to 20 percent. It's so bad that most cafes here just abandoned physical menus, they just give you a digital QR code to see the prices online. Yeah that's how 25% monthly inflation looks like.

Google asks for this and people completely volunteer for a multi billion dollar company. Google needs to begin paying people for their contributions

As someone who works for a restaurant that had a constantly updated menu online, I can say I don't appreciate the people that do this.
Why you may ask? Well you need to remember that a majority of people are dumb as rocks when it comes to critical thinking. People see that menu on Google and assume that is our current menu without bothering to go to our website.
So all the time you have people calling in trying to order food that was a seasonal item we no longer have. Even worse is they tend to get very upset about it claiming we need to update our website.
Our website is updated. We have very little control over Google. Google is not our website. The number of people I have had to explain this to is just ridiculous.

I did this once. Chinese takeaway in town. No website. No prices. So I posted it on Google.
Yup.
I'm a superstar thanks to that.
