[quote=Anonymous]I walked up to hostess stand, placed an order for soup and a sandwich, and told them I’d be back in 15 min- running a quick errand next door.
Server rang up my bill and I signed receipt, told her I’d be back soon.
I used a gift card. She said “tip isn’t included, so you can either leave that with another card or cash”
I looked at her , nodded politely and left.
Did not sit at a table, did not drink water. I literally left for 15 min and came back.
My food was waiting in the to go bag on the stand. A different server called my name and handed me the bag.
I said thank you! And walked away.
The original server walked over and said wait stop!
I walked back thinking that I forgot something.
She said loudly: “you didn’t tip.”
I said, I’m aware, thank you. And left.

When did tipping culture become so bold that people are demanding and expecting tips on a straight take out order?
I almost want to call the restaurant and say something to the manager because I find this inappropriate.
