Tipping can be an etiquette minefield. How much to pay and what service you should pay for can mean very different things to different people. Not every hospitality worker relies on their tips to make up their wage, but a little extra money never goes amiss. As it turns out, this might buy you some privileges, too.

According to Dunkin Donuts employee @jasonmora2, he treats orders of customers differently depending on whether they tip or not. In a viral video, he demonstrated how the drink of someone who has tipped receives extra care and more thorough stirring than the average order. Although he mentioned in the comments that a tip wasn't always expected, viewers were still not impressed by what they saw as a discriminatory attitude. If Jason wanted to encourage a few more iced coffee lovers to empty their pockets, it seems to have backfired.
