Yeah, kinda odd tipping a housekeeper used to be regional at high end only that got broadcast to everyone.
Similar to 30% tips at buffet and drivethroughs, which then also nag for a donation to a charity.
Seems like the trend is that every person that does some form of manual labor now needs tips because nobody is paid.
I’ve encountered a GAS STATION, that had the tip functionality turned on if you went inside, I think we are entering bizzaro land that needs to stop.
Similar to delivery drivers all being contractors getting less pay per mile than it costs to drive and then needing a higher than average tip to survive.
Some of the local restaurants are manned by the owners and have the automatic big 30% highlighted when you pay, takes effort to align it to something more normal, since the other options 40 and 50% tips seem silly, I’m not taking the waitress home with me.
Unfortunate we as a country decided companies don’t need to pay for labor making it an adversarial situation between the customers and staff.
In Japan tips are illegal and will get you an ass whupping, should be that way everywhere in that they are paid properly by the place of business and do a good job without requiring a bribe.
