[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they get it right on a "fancy" drink, which is sadly rare, I will tip $1 or my change if it's over 50 cents.  But I always pay cash for coffee.

I want the good ones to keep working as baristas so it's a selfish thing too.  Also, I only go 2-3 times a month.[/quote]

But you have to pay (and tip) before you even get your coffee so how do you know whether to tip?

I'm like the majority of folks on here (and thank goodness since I always worry I'm the only one) but places where there's a counter and cashier do not get tips from me.

To  the employee who posted.  Yes, I understand every little bit extra helps.  But that's true of all people and all lower paying jobs.  It is unfortunate that our society has evolved into this tipping frenzy.  The only ones who win with this environment are the large corporations.  They pay 3 cents and charge $3 for a cup of coffee, pay their staff barely anything and shift the responsibility of supplementing their employee wages onto the customers.  The sooner we all stop tipping, hopefully the sooner employees will get their justified pay - something higher than minimum wage - from their employers.   [/quote]
