Doesn't it feel like you're being asked to leave a tip every time you shop somewhere?

Coffee place? Tip.

Get your oil changed? Tip.

Buy a gumball from a machine? Tip.

Sure, we're exaggerating, but man it really does feel like we're always being asked to leave gratuity, even in places where it feels like we shouldn't have to!

Is the time nigh? Are we as Idahoans expected to part with additional funds to leave a tip for the person who rung up our fast food order?

Before you think we're making this up, even Ramsey Solutions is encouraging patrons to tip at fast food restaurants:

When it comes to fast-food (or “fast casual”) restaurants, pay attention to the kind of service you receive. Do they bring the food to your table? Do they bus the table and tidy it up for you? If so, leave a few bucks in the tip jar or on the screen if you’re feeling extra generous. But don’t feel obligated. It’s okay to bypass the tip in those situations.

When it comes to fast-food (or “fast casual”) restaurants, pay attention to the kind of service you receive.

Does that mean we're now expected to leave gratuity at every single fast food restaurant we eat at moving forward?

I sure hope not, because I'm already having a tough time affording that combo meal that was $4.99 pre-pandemic, but is now $9.78 because of iNfLaTiOn.
