    The craziest thing to me are the places that have steadily raised the percentages for the default buttons. It’s a percentage, it already accounts for inflation automatically 😑

      Yeah but the wages of these employees haven’t. Don’t go making the employer raise their hourly rate!

      So inconsiderate of you.

      Yes! A 15% tip in 1980 should still be a 15% tip today. Not this 20-25% madness that they try to keep pushing.

        I was told inflation is like 3% per year over the long term. You’re a monster to not want them to have that!

      A bunch of grocery stores have also eliminated the “bagger” job, leaving you to do it yourself, but then also ask for a tip! Store cut costs by paying their employees shit, heaping more work on them, and then asking you to give their poor ass employees some money. Give them the money you saved on eliminating the bag people!
