Perhaps I'm disrespecting my own American culture, but it _is_ weird.
Which industries expect tips and which don't feels arbitrary and ridiculous. Cabs, food service (sort of? Lots of fast food places leave a line item for tips, but I don't think it's expected,) bell hops. People in the fashion industry like tattoo artists and hair dressers expect tips, but I've never heard of people in retail wanting tips. Food delivery wants to be tipped (especially given that they have to cover their own vehicle costs,) but not package delivery.
I know that I'm not the only American that considers tipping to be arbitrary and backward. The only American I've heard who defended it didn't understand that we wanted to replace his tipping wages with fair wages
