Most people do tip every time when asked. The social pressure of an employee standing over you while you decide whether to tip or not pushes most to just hit one of the tipping options just to get out of the uncomfortable situation.
It’s made intentionally uncomfortable so that they can squeeze an extra couple bucks out of people for no reason.
Right because unless you force a tip to an employee without being asked, likely against company policy, and incredibly awkwardly, then you are a HyPoCrItE.
I actually find that a good chunk of people who use the word hypocrite either don’t know what it means, or cram it into scenarios where it’s a huge stretch, or a combination of both.
When I go to McDonalds or any other drive through fast food place I pay in cash, such that the change they would give me back would be at least a 30% tip.
I let them gather the change to give back to me (so they’re not distracted and the till has been properly managed) and then when they go to give me my change I say “That’s tip”, and give a huge thumbs up (I’m not sure where cameras face or if they record audio, and so I want to make it clear in any way that I can that the worker didn’t just steal my change).
I’m not saying that everyone should do that, but those workers are underpaid and if it costs me $10 to make someone’s day a little better, while they’re saving me the time and effort of cooking my own meal, for me that’s money well spent.
I hope I’m not getting anyone in trouble. I live in a small town and have done this a lot over the years at different fast food places, and I’ve seen the same people enough that I assume I would have heard if there had been serious negative consequences for anyone.

In your mind there exist people who just tip every time they’re asked no matter the context?
I wish I lived in a world where people could literally afford to be that dumb.

Good thing I’m socially inept, I’m oblivious to such pressure…

Even more lols after looking at your comment history. It practically never fails if someone says “unhinged” they are a conservative JAQer

I’m aware you want to seem not conservative

3rd party here -> isn’t scrolling through comment history an ad hominem?
because it isn’t addressing the point.
However, I’d say that a lot of times the rich people are poor tippers because in their minds “their presence” is your tip.

After saying what you just said lol
I can somewhat confirm this. I’ve worked at Wendy’s, and it was explicitly prohibited to accept a tip. My guess is it would be the same at McDonald’s.

When I worked at McDonald’s we were specifically instructed not to keep tips and to place any cash “left behind” in the RMHC donation bin.
Oof. That sucks.

I don’t give my money to businesses that brutally exploit their workers. Period.
It would be basically impossible to exist in modern society if that were true.
