I always tell the window person in a drive through to have a nice day after getting my order - since I don’t go through those often I don’t get to do it much.

The Tip one I have issues with. I gave a 16-17% tip at a lunch once and had the waitress run me down in the parking lot to tell me it wasn’t enough. Never returned to the place again and it still steams me.

I prefer the custom in Japan - a tip is considered rude because it implies you need the money because you can’t do your job well.

Was it one of those "automatic 20% gratuity for parties of 6 or more" type places? Because, otherwise, I would have been tempted to use profanity in that situation.
