I went into a mom and pop type restaurant that required the customers to place their orders at the counter, wait for the order, and then take their own order to the table of choice. The owners had a tip jar on the counter. I stood their thinking "they want me to pay for my order and tip them for taking it?".

I agree. I'm a generous tipper, but that whole "tip jar" concept in a fast food joint (just because it's independent) has always annoyed me.

Another thing that pisses me off, everydamn store has a tip cup now. Dunkin donuts = Tip cup, pizza joint = tip cup, i live in a college town and even the gas stations have them now! What ever happened to the take-a-penny-leave-a-penny, or the Jimmy Fund Jar, now the zit-faced college kids think they deserve the extra change we dont want!
