[QUOTE="Fran, post: 81178, member: 3"] I'm pretty tired of the ever growing tip group. It was pretty clear who got tips and who didn't. Now even a jar at the counter for me getting my own coffee. I'm not begrudging the minimium wage worker a decent salary but it is vague who gets tipped. I tip when my hair is colored and cut. Do I then tip the girl who washes the dye out too? I'd rather have a concrete price. Give the staff a decent wage and throw out the tip jar. Starbucks should be ashamed. I have to pay the airport for taking my suitcases and then tip the gentlemen who picks them up and puts them on the belt. I now end up paying double. (it was just the guy getting a tip before the airport horned in on the scene) I keep thinking of folks like my mom who 1.00 tip is a lot. Not everyone has all those extra dollars. It seems like an inefficient way for folks to earn a living. I think I tip well to the regulars that do provide good service. They always seemed pleased but every time I turn around I feel like I should be giving someone a tip. I don't like it at all. It's not fair to the hard working people who don't get tips and are just squeezing by. PS: I don't tip the room maid. [/QUOTE]
