    Context is king: that cashier sees none of those tips because you used your debit card and the ‘tip’ goes directly into the corporations bank account.

    Loblaws already has a fat enough margin with the gouging, they don’t need any extra boosts from my just-about-broke ass.

      Well, that’s what cash is for, and also that is usually not how it works. I’m sure it is how it works somewhere but by and large (like 99%) the servers/cashiers/drivers get paid out for those tips, sometimes having to split them, sometimes with taxes taken out already, but they do get it.

      Not saying you have to tip, if you feel they don’t deserve any kindness then by all means fuck em, but they do usually get the tips despite what you may think.
