Places that you do not have to tip, no matter how much pressure tries to break you, anywhere with a counter, fast food, retail, grocery stores, coffee shops, none of those require tips. If you're feeling generous or they made you an amazing, extra, triple shot, macchiato, fancy fancy something, something drink, throw in an extra buck or two. But nothing is required here as they are providing a product and not a service. These counterworkers are being paid at least, the minimum wage, if not more, thus you are not required to help make up for the fact that they're making sub-minimum wage, who does not need to be tipped, trades people in service contractors like plumbers and electricians, delivery carriers like Amazon drivers or the USPS carrier, and salary professionals like lawyers, doctors and therapists. If you're therapist, ever insinuates that you should tip them, please run very quickly away. Monetary tip is not and should not be expected. Now, the tough part. How to refuse tipping when it's not necessary, even when you feel pressure to do so. Hey, I'm not a psychologist, and you have to do what feels right and safe in any given situation. But my advice? Be polite and firm. Make your choices on the tablet or receipt that align with your values and finances, but be pleasant and kind while doing so. Want to hear even more?
