Black Mirror has an episode about this, but with social media likes/dislikes or up/down votes.
“If you can’t afford to tip, you can’t afford to eat out!”
Both true
to be fair 15% of nothin is nothin. Seriously though its one reason I stopped going to sit down places awhile ago.
Hey I need a 35% tip for this comment since there's no minimum wage for commenting.
$0.00 x 0.35 = $0.00
(Ó╭╮Ò) how will I ever put food on my family with pay so low.
And they'll guilt trip you if you don't tip because apparently it's YOUR fault that they don't eat tonight for not tipping (and not their employer's for not paying a living wage).
Preface: I'm in favor of employers paying employees (and contractors) a living wage
have never ever asked for a tip or even a nod for that. if you do things for others expecting remuneration, then you should pay for every favor done for you
The 'murican way. Do you really expect good will in a capitalist hellscape?
good will is independent of politics. hard to believe i know but it is
Sure I'll tip 85% of nothing.
They’d literally rather beg than change the system they live under.
Literally some buildings have doormen that you are expected to tip. It's insanity
I went to new york years ago, on checkout of the hotel I asked reception if I could store my bags in the hotel as it was hours before we even had to leave for the airport. Followed a guy across the lobby, with me wheeling and carrying my bags, to a door which he opened, put them literally about a metre inside, tagged them and made it clear he wanted a tip. Like... What?
Looking after your bags is a service that isn't actually part of the money you already agreed to pay. They're doing you a small favour.
I'd give the guy a tip in that case.
In most countries that is just a general courtesy... Even in far cheaper hotels.
I wonder if Hodor got tipped
So how far goes tipping in the USA now? Supermarkets? You go get your driving license and they ask a tip? The landlord wants a tip for collecting rent? You can tip the red light so it turns green earlier?
There are automated kiosks that ask for tips now. Seriously, I wish that was a joke.
If that continues like this, customers are going to demand a tip for not making a scene and the circle is complete
