Gotcha. Yeah, I try to tip based on whether or not the employee’s pay is being cut down due to the expectation of tipping. I can’t do anything to change the jobs that are already allowed to pay peanuts, but I worry that all of this rise in tipping prompts is to try to make a case that tipping is expected in places like fast food, and will be used to justify paying those workers even less as a result. You’re right that it’s a lot of work regardless, though.
