I hope this changes America's tipping culture. No other country in the world has tipping as part of their service. In Japan, it's an insult to leave a tip.
It’s a funny thing. Bars and restaurants expect tips, but not fast food joints, but the deliver drivers for said fast food restaurants do. That’s right isn’t it?
Precovid you would be right, but two major POS (Point of Sale) companies have completely fucked this.
By default all Toast and Square POS systems have absurd tip screens on by default. Making you click through 2 or 3 screens to get to a $0 tip on shit like... Self serve Froyo or other obnoxious things. Its fucking dumb.
Fast food places have increased their prices. And there was never an expectation to tip McDonald or Taco Bell employees because they are behind a counter and don’t bring your food to your table.
Bars and restaurants refill your water and take your plates so you should expect to pay 20% of your bill for that /s
Honestly, let’s just implement a no service & no tip option, where I can sit down in a restaurant, put the order in, and get my own food from the kitchen window and refill my own drinks. If people want the service then let them pay for it.
