I've completely lost my chill with forced tips. If that was take out I would tell them they could keep it.
Jesus Christ that's cold.
For real why dont they do round up tips? if the total is 18.06, show a tip option of 1.94 and indicate the toal would be 20. Im from a country where tipping isnt done but often people would just give a 20 in cases like this and say keep the change. The change is the tip.
Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wtf is wrong with America at this point, Everytime I visit family there I am shocked, SHOCKED, by the absurd tipping!
This is already the norm in quite a few places in England. They auto-generate a tip on the bill and if you want, you can request the tip to be removed after.
And I did that every single time, when I was in London some time ago
They should auto generate it into the prices and auto generate it into the salary. Crazy concept
They should, but they instead taught the staff to demand why you don't want to. I refused in one place and was confronted with them demanding why I wasn't giving them one.
"Was there something wrong with my service? You know that the tip is shared between us and the kitchen...."
I'm not joking.
God, I encountered this once and had to ask for it to be removed. I countered with "are they paying you enough?"
A little backbone from a few customers will make them hate using this system enough, it can be hoped.
We had the shittiest service ever at Fogo de Chao and I tipped $20 on a $150 bill. The waiter actually followed us to the door questioning why the tip was low and insulting us.
Time to leave your shit on the counter and leave. Vote with your wallet.
I've genuinely seen people tape over the no tip section of the screen on smaller pinpad type devices. Not well enough that I tipped, but they tried.
I would've pulled off the tape for spite.
You have typed $1.00 $2.00 $3.00
Did you mean 15% 25% 40%?
$15%
I'd just turn around and leave without paying and leave what ever it is I was gonna buy right there at the counter
Well you've already been charged so....
No. The machine asks you for a tip before you pay.
Cancel button in this case and leaving WITH what you've paid for in your case.
The cancel button is top right
