Is Tipping Culture Going Crazy? - Friday!
Yo, good morning! It’s Friday! Welcome to Friday. How are y’all doing? It’s chilly. I just sat on a wet chair again; this is embarrassing, but we digress. Black Ops dropped last night. I don’t know why people are jumping on planes to New Zealand to play a game 14 hours early so they can get their camos. It just seems like a rush to get done with the game, right? We’re in such a rush these days to beat a game, to play a game, and then all of a sudden, we’re like, ‘Ah, this game is boring.’ Pace yourself, ladies and gentlemen. Take your time. Be easy with it.
Yo, you know what’s crazy? Tipping culture is crazy. Everyone complains about tipping culture. It’s my turn to complain about tipping culture today. I was at Subway yesterday, and you know, they make you a sub. You take that sub home; you’re not really hanging out there. And then you get hit with the ‘What’s your tip?’ I always feel guilty when there’s a tip, and then there’s a small little button saying ‘No Tip’ because hitting ‘No Tip’ just feels like I’m being a cheap ass, and I don’t like admitting that I’m a cheap ass in public. I don’t mind doing it on TikTok videos or Instagram videos or YouTube videos, but in public, not so much.
Anyways, there was a story that I saw yesterday that made me laugh where some guy belonged to, like, a doomsday cult, and they thought the world was ending. So they started this whole ‘tip as much as you can, make someone’s day’ type thing. So this guy tipped $3,000—3,000, 3K, three bands—on a freaking $13 bill! And you know that probably made the waitress’s day. They took pictures with the guy. Everyone’s like, ‘Thank you. You’re amazing.’ And he’s like, ‘No, this is my belief. I believe everyone should get everything they need, and I’m not taking anything with me.’ And then the doomsday date that they had said passed, and he didn’t die, and the world didn’t end. So he did a chargeback on his credit card. He’s like, ‘Yeah, that $3,000? I kind of want it back.’ Anyway, the restaurant is suing him now. That was crazy. Imagine tipping someone $3,000 on $13! How about tip everyone? Tip a bunch of places $10 instead of $3,000 on a $13 bill! Man, the guy must have gotten some of the best service ever.
But anyway, tipping’s wild, man. Why are we tipping? It’s one of the most stressful parts of going on vacation is how much do I tip these people? I feel like worldwide, nationally, we need to just get everyone paid fairly so that tips are not a thing. Anyway, y’all have a great ass day, man! Have a great Friday! Enjoy your weekends. Halloween is approaching. Till the next one, peace!
