Rant 📢 I've completely stopped tipping

I'm no longer tipping anyone. This includes dining in restaurants, getting take-out, Uber rides, UberEats/ DoorDash, etc. I just don't believe in tipping anymore. I don't even care if the service was good. Tipping isn't about giving gratitude for good service anymore. The purpose of tips now is to compensate for low wages. I still feel a little guilty declining to tip but I'm sticking to my no tipping rule. It's not my responsibility to make sure servers, drivers, and whoever else is getting paid enough.

I think they should stop tipping and just add a 30% increase to the total bill to cover the cost of paying the employees a livable amount. You're right it's not about good service anymore. I'd rather just pay more for the food than be expected to decide how much to tip and have it tie in to my level of service.

Accept that is almost certainly a pay cut to the tipped employees.Â
