If your business needs tips to pay your staff, you are not a business, you are a wellfare queen.

    It's hard to articulate in words just how thoroughly and unequivocally the airport can fuck, in it's entirely, off.

    It's a place that's perfectly designed to keep you just uncomfortable enough to be miserable but not uncomfortable enough to leave. Everything there is made to keep the human soul at 5% charge.

    It's like if the concept of minimum viable product was a place.

    So yeah, no tip.

    This kind of shit is extra infuriating given the current wealth inequality. Half of American families face food insecurity ffs.

    It starts with just 18% tip, but next they’re going to want 18% tip and shaft.

    People are outraged once again by out-of-control tipping culture after an airport self-service checkout asked for an 18 percent tip.

    The simplest explanation is that it is a default setting or the terminal was used in a different setting previously.

    The tips are likely pooled so it won't raise alarm bells.

    That wouldn't be newsworthy tho.
