The problem with tipping is that it's spreading, as wages aren't keeping up with cost of living, but employers won't hand out raises. Uber driver? Tip. Sandwich shop? Tip. Coffee shop? Tip. Pizza delivery? Delivery fee plus tip. Have I been in drive-throughs with a tip jar? You better believe I have.

Enough already, guys.

Drive-through with tip jar. Wow. Anyhow, I can't really condemn them for trying, and you can understand why management won't either.

Yeah, it's just annoying, and it'll take a loooot of time to fix these small annoyances.

It's never going away, I don't think. Workers love getting extra money, and most food industry operations are barely staying alive as it is. I'm annoyed enough to whine, but I still tip.
