It’s extortion at fast food places. I went to one and it had a kiosk for ordering and it asked me for a tip. I walked out. Even the machines want tips.

I refuse to use Kiosks, if I walk in and see a Kiosk I point at it and declare loudly to the staff “just because you have that I am out of here” and walk out... I’ll starve first...

” Even the machines want tips.”

You are charged an 18% tip for the robot bartender on Royal Caribbean cruise ships. I’m sure the robot appreciates the extra cash.

When I worked at the Beaverton, OR McDonald's in the early 70s, employees were not allowed to accept tips.

In restaurants, I only tip for full-service waiting, i.e. the server takes the order at the table and then brings the food to the table. I tip only in cash; it's not my business whether the tips get reported.

If I ever took a taxi or went to a bar these days, I'd tip the driver or bartender. I'd tip for pizza or food deliveries except that nobody delivers out here. In all other situations, your pay is between you and your boss.
