Should Interac Machines Be Programmed To Leave Tips at Restaurants?
When and where people should leave tips and how much of a tip is a debate or a person’s own choice but what about when we are being asked to leave a tip at restaurants? As many of you are aware Interac Machines are programmed to ask the person if they would like to leave a tip. I myself find this wrong as tipping people at restaurants and other places is an act of giving and should never be asked or make the customer feel obligated to leave one. That is no different then soliciting, or begging for money.
