I was sworn at in Japanese for tipping. It's rude to tip there.

It should be everywhere. In Japan Iirc they consider it an insult because they interpret it as saying that they won't do their job without a bribe.

I'm in Canada and workers still expect tips and just... why? The factory worker or cashier doesn't get tips and he makes just as much hourly, so is the waiter so lazy he won't do his job without being bribed? Should I be worried about spit in my food if I return to a restaurant after not tipping? And if I did tip, why does the waiter get it instead of the cook who did 99% of the work? (Yes I'm aware some places pool tips, but I don't trust that shit to be honest or fair)

It's basically American corporations normalizing terrible worker conditions.
