minus-squareArcanepotato@crazypeople.onlinelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12arrow-down11·2 days ago 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.
