Glad to know it's not required. I especially hate the coffee shop flip around. I usually tip in those circumstances, but ugh.

I would have responded in the same way, OP.

OP initiated the sequence of events with her cheapness and entitled attitude.

Scroll up a bit. The restaurant owner disagrees with you. A tip on takeout is appreciated, but not expected, and certainly not demanded.

I don't have to scroll up to know how to treat workers with kindness.

Well the staff at this restaurant didn’t treat OP with kindness, so maybe you still have some life lessons to learn.

No, the worker didn't respond with kindness. Most of us don't get that kind of response from restaurant employees because we treat them with kindness and respect and show our appreciation by tipping them for their service. You have an opportunity to do better in the coming new year!😊👍

Uhhh, no. No one is entitled to tips. And if you demand a tip, you are rude and should be fired. People like you are encouraging this ridiculous, entitled behavior. Congrats.

No one is entitled to a tip. And you can continue to act like a cheap jerk.

Tipping has nothing to do with being kind or being a jerk. You are paying for the quality of service. In this instance there was no service.

No, OP tried to use a gift card. The employee’s first concern was what about a tip. The employee was wrong and should be separated from the employer. And if OP doesn’t get an apology, OP should detail the experience in a Yelp review to warn others.

No, the OP used a gift card and did not intend to leave a tip.

Which is entirely appropriate and keeping with norms for tipping culture. Don’t flip over the iPad and start tipping suggestions at 25%. Just, no. You are doing your job to package my food that I drove to collect. You didn’t serve me for half an hour or whatever. And you don’t make a tipped wage.

/\/\ the Ebenezer Scrooge Award goes to you and OP.

+1 yep

I’m sorry that you are stuck working menial jobs, but your entitlement for tips when you make a decent wage is absurd. If you think you are underpaid, take it up with your employer. Tipping is for people who provide a service and are paid a reduced wage in anticipation of tips. That isn’t a chef, hostess or manager at a restaurant. And we don’t have a relationship of any kind when I pick up my food. I make no apologies for this — you can stomp your feed and call me names all you want. You are just wrong and look ridiculous.

I am a generous tipper where it is appropriate.
