Not me either. If there was a button that said “F.U.”, I’d push it.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Yup. I tip 10% on the credit card so it’s covered, then I leave the balance in cash. Just helping those folks avoid my greedy uncle.

[Persevero]

I never do it.

I don’t tip for counter service. I might if I did something large and unusual, like, order 50 sandwiches for a catered event or something.

Counter service is counter service.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Not me. They should pay me for self check out.

[GailA]

DON’T USE THEM. THEY ERROR.

[Scrambler Bob]

To be fair, there should be like 15%, 20%, 25%,

And 0

And how about some negativES: minus 15%, minus 20%, etc?

[ronniesgal]

just don’t tip then!!!

[Organic Panic]

I carry green backs for tipping when I pay with a card.

[Indy Pendance]

As I was taught, “No.” is a complete sentence. No further explanation is needed.

[jean michael]

All tipping is optional.

[cyclotic]

Me neither. A friend from church and were discussing this Sunday. We both travel expensively for our jobs.

We agreed that there is no reason to tip a fast food clerk.

I also believe that tip percentages need to decrease. Food costs have increased way beyond other costs.

I’ve gone down to about 15% at real restaurants.

Let me help with this. Tipping is intended to reward services rendered by one individual to another. Automated self-service is not accomplished “one individual to another”, so it does not include such services rendered. Tipping a machine is clearly unwarranted.

i think the only negative emotion i might have is if there’s not a “Hell No!” button ...
