How do you feel about places like Starbucks and chain style sandwich shops putting out tip jars?
I think it’s fine. Most of the people who work at places like Starbucks and Subway are college students who are trying to pay their way through school, so why not help ’em out with a little extra cash? I know what it’s like to work in customer service and in food service, so I tip whenever I can, but I also DON’T tip if the service is crappy. I also think that if you have an issue with tip jars, just don’t tip. You aren’t obligated to put a dollar out there.
