I can tell this is old because the tip selection doesn't go up to 30%+.

Seriously, tipping is getting out of hand. I compromised by going above 15% to begin with, I'll be cold and dead in the ground before I go above 20% and I will die on this hill.

Don't tip non-service oriented people at all. You shouldn't tip a gas station attendant for ringing up your bottle of water. Just stick to the traditional tipping industries tipping everyone helps no one except for the credit card processing companies, since the people getting those tips now have to turn around and hand them to someone else every time they spend their money. It's all a scam by the processing companies.

I remember when 10% used to be default for typical service and 15%-18% for exemplary service. Then, several years ago, suddenly everyone started putting 15% as the lowest option on their debit/credit machines. Now I have to push Other Amount to add a 10% tip, but honestly just pressing the no-tip button would be a lot easier. I don't do it, but it sure is getting tempting.

It's especially getting out of hand when convenience stores are doing it, and then the cashier has the gall to give you a shitty look, especially when you hit no tip. Motherfucker, you scanned my item and processed a transaction, why the fuck do you deserve a tip for just doing your job?

I will get hate for it but that last sentence is exactly how I feel about a waiter at a restaurant. You brought me my drink, and you brought me my food. Which is supposed to be your job, I understand that a lot of them get paid potentially less than minimum wage but that's not my fault. I paid what was asked for, if the server went Above and Beyond in some way I will generally leave a tip but if they just did their job I don't see any reason to.

Be mad at your bosses for being worthless piles of shit who don't pay you properly not me for not paying more than what I was asked to pay

The dirty look from people whose jobs don’t deserve a tip drives me over the edge
