Before COVID shut it down, I had picked up bartending as a side gig for something to do on top of my tech job. It wasn't so much about the money for me, so I'd often try bypassing the tipping screen on the machine for the customer... And then they'd get upset with me for doing so.
It's pretty clear that the customers also prefer to give tips. Until you quash that, things can't change. The customer dictates everything in the end.

- randomdata 2y agoYou're right, not everyone did tip, but in my experience the vast majority did. What is certain is that the practice wouldn't exist if the customer didn't like it. I mean, why would someone buy something they don't like? Especially something so frivolous? That wouldn't make any sense. But you could tell that of those who did tip, they got enjoyment out of it.
