Leaving tip at the counter or for take out food is just incomprehensible to me. It's like tipping a grocery store clerk at check out when you are paying for your groceries. I bought this food already, what am I leaving a tip for?
I stopped tipping the grocery clerks when they stopped asking to see my ID when I purchased alcohol.
I mentioned this when the woman ahead of me bought a bottle of wine. The clerk said "She looks under 35. You don't."
Definitely no tip.
Nah. Don't tip for stuff like that, that's BS
No. That question is now the default of all POS (point of sale) systems. If they're not wait staff, bar tenders, delivery, or performing some other service, there is literally no reason to tip them.
Why would you tip someone who just rang you up? Tipping is for exceptional service rendered, not for pushing a button on a screen and handing you something. This whole over-tipping bullshit was started by the credit card point of sale machine businesses, because they reap greater profits. If everyone makes tips, then no one makes tips. The only winner is Square Cash.
Is cash, square... anywhere? Round and rectangle and even other polygons.... but square?
Square Cash is the name of a CC POS company that is responsible for leaving all the tipping options on by default and setting them very high.
I mean the thing that you tap your credit card on by the company square is square yes
Believe it or not, Hell.
Great! See you there!!!
No. You might want to move in a country where we don't tip ? 😅
Tip on counter service, don't tip on retail purchases. This was a retail purchase. If you had gotten a latte you should've tipped a dollar for that, but not on the entire total.
You're probably not going to hell because hell probably doesn't exist. However, whether you are cast into the outer darkness, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth, that's another matter and I suggest truly repenting for your misdeeds... of which this was not one, to be clear.
If I ordered a latte, it would be a special hell. Different subject.
Lactase tablets are a thing.
I don’t even tip when ordering food to-go. I buy goods, not service.
No you are not going to hell.
You'll be fine as long as you remember to tip Charon
No, but USCBP might deport you to a country where tipping isn't a thing, if they were to find out.
Not for a retail purchase such as that. It’s just the default screen in many payment systems now.
I see some folks commenting that they don’t tip fo “to-go” — I always do, usually about 15%, because an employee went through the process of putting your order together and putting it into containers that cost that business money. And if it’s a place I order from often, they often remember that and are extra nice.
You cannot save the world by tipping.
That said, tip table service, delivery drivers and valets if local customs encourage it.
