Personally, I *HATE* being served by another human being; never met anyone so great that they should be served, nor anyone so despicable that they should be subservient to another human.
Do you buy everything online? Because it sure sounds like you have the same thoughts for retail stores and grocery stores. (sigh) There are so many people that work in customer service related fields, it's just enormous. Please clarify the difference between food service and customer service (retail and the like).

Gladly and with great relish. With retail and others one is not dependent on tips. I make a distinction between providing a specified service for a specified price as part of my job and being forced to depend on the whim of a customer who may or may not be pleased or pissed over many things, most of those outside my control, for a portion of my renumeration.
In addition I find, on a philosophical basis, servitude of any kind disgusting; even more so if I am being served. I want no one 'waiting' on me, nor carrying my bags, nor driving me or doing ANY thing which I am capable of doing; thusly delimiting the 'service' I wish to receive to things such as medical, legal, or architectural assistance.
In particular I *HATE* tipping, and hate the idea of anyone with whom I have a financial, service (or social) relationship being paid insufficiently, which I define as enough to purchase a house and send children through college.
As far as *I* choose to perceive things, subservience and subordination of one human to another are far more evil than any demonic constructs of the imagination of ancient writers and people who cravenly desire another human being to fawn upon them are sick, to the point of perversion, in spirit and mind.
Just my .02, YMMV, etc.
