The off sales near my house recently added this, why tf would I tip when you’re grabbing a 6 pack that’s 2 steps away from the window? Gtfo with that shit. Tipping is for quality service in a sit down restaurant or for a delivery driver bringing me something cause I’m too lazy or drunk to do it myself.
Even then, tipping should be abolished and business owners should simply pay a proper fuckin wage instead of using customers to subsidize their profits.
My sisters girlfriend tips at places like dairy Queen, which is just fucking mental to me. Why are we tipping at regular minimum wage places now???
Tipping culture is out of control, and this is just more corporate greed further exploring an already massively exploitative practice. I tip for people who make sub-minimum tipped wages, and that’s begrudgingly because I’m expected to supplement the wages of restaurant workers, but fuuuuuuuck doing that to regular wage places. 15-20% at a sit down place is bad enough, but now we gotta fucking help these massive corpo fucks underpay their people and skim off the tips (assuming the workers see any of it)?? No. It’s hard for all of us right now, I get it, but still, no. I just don’t go to those sorts of places really anymore for that reason.

Agreed. I tip when being served at a table because I know the shitty system requires it, but no way I’m tipping in any other situation!

I’m not opposed to people tipping if they want to and can afford it. It’s doing it because you feel obligated by societal pressure that’s fucked up.
