    Today I had lunch at a restaraunt, I was given the option to tip so I did, expecting to get service. I got the fast food treatment, they threw a tray on the counter that I had to pickup and when I went to leave they made me bus my own table…

    I’ve got family that used to rely on tips so I’ve always been a generous tipper. The recent tip culture has completely changed me though and now these expected tips just piss me off.

      Personally I’ll tip 10% or less if its an establishment that shouldn’t be asking for a tip, and 20% for an actual tipped profession. More ideally tipping will be phased out because these POS systems are letting it really get out of hand

        I think you’re part of the problem dude, tipping 10% when they shouldn’t be asking for tips means that it’s worth it to them to now ask for tips.

          I see it as I’d rather give a meager tip than no tip if I incorrectly identify whether or not I should be giving a tip
