Do I get the tip in this instance?

Since it's self-service, I'll just tip myself by keeping the money lol

Paying $15 for that wrap is the real crime. Why do you shop there?

There is a 3% tax added specifically to cover extra pay for Airport Workers. Why are you being asked to tip for a self service kiosk.

I hate this. If I don’t tip I’m an asshole. If I tip I let companies pay their workers like garbage.

Dear companies. Pay your employees more. Frankly I’d be less insulted if they just rose the price by 20% then asking me to tip. IMHO if they employers did this they would just pocket the difference.

And I’m guessing bus boys are paid even less than the server.

We need some common sense regulations on tips and hidden fees. They need to be limited in some way at this point and, preferably just banned altogether.

I don't understanding tipping up front. Before you've received your food...

Also feels like a threat asking for a tip immediately... Like, if you don't tip or they don't like the amount, the person making it is going to deliberately fuck with the food.

$25 for a god damn wrap and water?? Are you serious? I can go to a Mexican restaurant and get chips & salsa and Fajitas for 2 and a Coke for for cheaper!

Don’t tip if you’re standing up!

FYI - the airport workers don't care if you put $0 for the tip. In fact, this terminal has a very convenient "No Tip" button right there, which is better than the ones which require you to hit Custom then select "$0".

In fact, I've yet to find a single person who has objected to me putting $0 in one of these terminals. I've even asked when they are standing right in front of me, Do You Get This Tip? And in all cases, they've said no.

So it's a pure money grab by the management. So feel good about putting in a $0!

Whata... Who's is the tipping supposed to go to??

This is ridiculous ...

wow nice, where is that so I can avoid it like the black plague? that's ~$6 food anywhere else.

Just steal at that point

This is seemingly an American only phenomenon. No one likes tipping, but if you patronize an establishment that abuses its staff with unlivable wages, you're condoning bad business. At least help the server out if they put in the effort. At a self checkout though??? foh

You should have bought something less healthy so you wouldn't have to pay the 3% fee

I'm so annoyed by the tipping systemm

More like take this tip and suck it

What happens if you put a negative number in the other box? Does it refund your card for that amount?

If it worked, IANAL, but they did ask how much you wanted to tip and willingly gave you money...seems like a solid defense...any lawyers wanna chime in?

So stupid

I feel like tipping when you're the one doing the checkout means not charging yourself for something? Not really sure how else to view that.

Tip: -50%

That's what you get when you let AI program the self-service machine.

Agreed. I had more empathy for tipping workers at self-service / carryout settings during the height of the pandemic (which is not over BTW). Now... Given that management has programmed these registers I find myself grudgingly tipping since I have to wonder if management has started paying them even more inadequately in anticipation of tipping.

I have somewhat magically decided I tip 10% at these things as there is no real guidance anymore. 20% for table service. Delivery... 15-20%?

Of course someone will come along saying to tip 0% to hold the line and force fair wages. I have some understanding of that argument too.
