dear God when will it end?
Maybe this is common (god I hope not) and I just never knew it cuz I dont go to Starbucks. But I went to starbucks tonight to get hot chocolate for the GF, and there was a [censored] tip cup sitting on the ledge at the drive thru. Now to be clear, it wasnt the McDonalds, spare change for the needy type bin. It was a plastic cup with the word "Tips" written on it.
Even worse, it was actually full of money. I prayed to baby jesus that someone would drive off with it |

You obviously do not appreciate a good barrista.

Re: dear God when will it end?
I never put money in those things. I'll put my loose change into the charity type containers but for some reason I go out of my way not to put any money in the tip cups. Is this the way most people are or am I just a dick?

I tip him so that in the future I get served quicker, or so that hes a little more generous when making my long island. neither of which is happening at the drive thru of a coffee shop. |

Re: dear God when will it end?
the only reasoning I would agree with you is that starbucks servers make their $$ off of their hourly wage.
Bartenders in the biggest clubs get paid [censored] hourly and primarly make their $$ from tips |

Re: dear God when will it end?
I always tip the change at donut/coffee shops whether I am inside or doing the drive-thru. We're talking about 25c here. What's the big deal?
I have never seen a tip cup at a drive-thru though. Also a lot of drive-thru attendants are kind of shocked when I give them back the change. Might not be too common. |
