I don’t tip on anything except table service restaurants and hair/nail services. I plan to continue doing that.

My daughter is a server she gets at least half her tips in cash each night.

The logic of OP's plan escapes me. Can someone explain it?

Apparently you already don’t need to tip in DC because it’s already included or something (?) in the food bill …. or something. No one really knows

Same here. They can keep their biscuit-sized burgers and Grade C quality. I have all but ceased eating out for about a year now.

Plus it's only up to a certain amount of income plus it's going to be short-lived? I think I read all that. Not that interesting at the end of the day. Just a fox talking point.

I have been doing that for a long time. Too only on hair and sit down restaurants. But if it’s somewhere that pays min wage or salon owner then no tip at all.

No, because I’m not always desperately looking around to find a reason not to tip.

I’m tired of everyone and their mom asking for a tip. I still tip at restaurants and salon/spa services. Everyone else can eat an egg.
