Study of The Tip Jar


Am I supposed to tip the Barista that makes my delicious coffee each morning?

Cause, I don't. Ever.

I consider myself a good tipper, if it's someone that makes $2.13 an hour like a waitress.

But, come on. Barista?

Their tip jar beckons me every morning, but I never put money in it.

Does this make me a jerk?

when i was a barista i made below minimal wage because similar to a waitress our job was considered tipable... but i still made $4 so if someone didnt tip it was no huge deal because others did. i guess it sjust up to you/where you get your coffee?

I only tip my barista if they make me smile.

It's a, "hey, you just made my morning more positive, so here's a couple cents" kinda thing.
