[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not "pandemic" related; it's enshittification due to modern technology infecting payments. [/quote]

It's also the enshittification of self-respect in america.  If you have self-respect, you won't beg or extort. What's happening is shameless mix of the two. [/quote]

Here's an example of how pervasive this loss (or lack) of self-respect is. A tree in front of a neighbor's house fell down. It was outside their house on community. The HOA took care of it by planting a new tree. Obviously it would take a few years for the tree to grow and provide the level of cover the previous tree provided.  The dude had the audacity to send out a note to everyone asking for donations so he could plant more trees in that spot to provide the privacy cover he lost!  He did not want to see the road from his porch and thought it was appropriate to beg his neighbors to chip in to provide that cover!  If someone living in a million dollar house can do this, I'm not surprised that a pimply kid at a yogurt shop wants extra money that he did not earn.  It's all cultural I suppose.. where i come from, you tip someone who's 'beneath' you and I'd never want to be in a situation of receiving tips.
