It's one thing to leave a small tip in a non-tipping society, but it is a complete other thing to not leave a tip at all in a society where people are living off of tips. If you leave a euro or two in Europe because the service was exceptional, that's fine. If you live a dollar or two on a $100 check in the U.S., then you are just a total entitled Karen. If you truly are anti-tipping, then you should be working on getting actual political policies changed, not shorting a waitress on her tip that she was going to use towards her rent that month. Like, grow some compassion!
Recently, a waitress was able to turn her $0 tip into several hundreds. How? Well, she simply asked the person who didn't tip her what she could do next time to make their experience better so she could earn more than $0 on a $400 tab. Oh boy, oh boy, the party he was with, his own friends, quickly turned on him. One of his friends was even a bartender, someone who very specifically lives off of tips, and they were quick to shame him and even put down more of their own cash for her as tip. He ended up erasing the zero quickly, but the aura damage was done. Hopefully that teaches him a little lesson in empathy…
