I agree
Tipping is a nuisance and should only be reserved for truly exceptional service. Why patrons are expected to compensate exceptionally poor pay is ridiculous

Stuff Black People Don’t Like: Tipping
Stuff Black People Don’t Like: Tipping
So yesterday I was reading a Shadow & Act post about a new web series called “Black People Don’t…” a satirical yet candid discussion with black folks around stereotypical things we, as a people, supposedly don’t do. Anyway, there was one episode that really caught my attention on the subject of blacks not tipping. Now I know what you’re saying — “That is a racist untruth that does not dignify an answer, blah, blah, and blah….” — but before folks get all indignant I have a story to tell.
All through high school and pretty much through college, I worked as a waitress. In fact, my very first on-the-books job was as a waitress at Friendly’s – you know, the place that makes those SuperMelt sandwiches and ice cream sundaes. Anyway, my first few weeks of work was spent as a waitress-in-training, which meant that I had to follow around a tenured waitress, whose job it was to ready me for waiting tables of my own. She took kindly to me, showing me the ropes on how to hold one of those large trays without dropping it, how to handle multiple tables at one time and dropping other pearls of wisdom to make my experience at Friendly’s more friendly. On my first day on the floor my mentor pulled me aside and gave me one last tidbit of advice: “Whatever you do, don’t take it personal. Black folks just don’t tip.” Huh? I was stunned, short of offended, not only because she was brazen enough to say that to me but also because she was a black lady. Surely, this lady was suffering from some sort of self-hatred issues. Boy was I wrong.
One of my very first tables of the night was a four-top of two black women, one black guy and a black baby. Before I could get the customary “Welcome Friendly’s may I take your order” out my mouth, I was already besieged with demands for appetizers, soda, more crayons and a gazillion questions about what could and could not be substituted on the menu. After finally taking their orders I was summoned to the table a total of 12 times for more soda, a glass of water, another box of crayons, more napkins and ranch dressing. It wouldn’t have been so bad if they had asked me for everything at one time, but these people were determined to work me hard. But through it all, I gritted my teeth and smiled because I knew that my due-diligence in providing the very best in Friendly’s service was going to be rewarded with a big fat tip. Boy, was I batting 0-2. Not only did the bothersome-foursome not leave a tip, they had the nerve to leave $2 less than the bill.

Here's a fact . I work for a living . No hiding my income .
I know all sorts of service workers who are "paper poor" . That way they can qualify for all sorts of low income assistance cause they hide their true income.

From waitress story's
Who Are The Worst Tippers? - Waiter Rant
Josh says:JAN 01, 2016
How is this even a DISCUSSION?! Black people are by FAR & AWAY the worst tippers… period… hands down. I’ve served in a half a dozen different types of restaurants, over 10+ years, and everybody received the same level of great service… the worst tips were ALWAYS from blacks.

Famous rich liberals cheap tippers
These Are America's Most Famous Bad Tippers - EpicTimes
1. Sean Penn has a net worth of $150 million but is notorious for lousy tipping, sometimes not even tipping at all. While dining in New Orleans once, Penn and three friends racked up a $450 bill and left no tip. Maybe Penn – who is on the political left – should learn to be more liberal with his gratuities as well.
2. Tiger Woods claims he doesn't tip because he never carries cash. Ever hear of a credit card? And reports say he once repocketed a $5 tip meant for a waitress after realizing he had tipped her earlier in the evening.
3. Celebrity Rachel Ray is known for being stingy when it comes to tipping. She regularly tips under 10% and has even promoted the idea that 7% was a good enough tip on her TV show. You’d think someone who’s worked in the restaurant industry would know better.
4.Barbra Streisand is mentioned more than once for being a cheap tipper and has a reputation as a rude and demanding customer. At a New York restaurant, she once "left a $10 tip for a $457 tab." Did anyone ever tell here that people who tip people –in terms of Karma – are the luckiest people in the world?
5..Madonna once left an $18 tip on a $400 bill. A waitress at NYC hotspot Babbo reported that after Madonna ate there with a friend, she failed to leave any tip at all. Not classy for someone worth hundreds of millions.
6. The owners of a restaurant in Rome were surprised when Facebook Founder Marc Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan walked away without leaving a tip. Their bill came to just over $40 after a lunch consisting of deep-fried artichokes fried pumpkin flowers and ravioli stuffed with sea bass and artichokes. Instead of wine or beer they opted for a bottle of water and some tea

Some nations, such as New Zealand I just got back from, does not have any tipping for any service. And all the service we received was A-1.
Tipping to me is a scam. Used to be 10%, then 15%, now it's 20%. That's a scam, a percentage is a percentage.
