Tipping, I do it most of the time but I don’t like the way it is going today
In the restaurant and the hair dresses, the first thing you see when
paying with a credit card, is; Gratuity, then the amount of your bill
We on purpose don’t pay then but give the worker the tip separately.

In Canada today we don't have a one dollar bill any longer but it is a coin
Because it has a picture of a Loon, a bird, the public dubbed it soon; the Loony
A few years later the same thing happened with a two dollar bill.
Yep you guessed it right it was promptly called the Toony
No sooner the Toony showed up and everywhere, tip jars appeared.
The drycleaner, the bakery, the deli’s etc.
Why? people very quickly found out that men hated all that change,
it was too heavy, so the tip jar was produced and there you have it, the tip jar wave

thumbs up Tipping is optional and a custom, not mandatory.
There are 3rd parties involved, who profit off it themselves. And then the person recieving the tip, doesn't recieve that full amount, and what they do recieve, they have to pay taxes on it.

Oh hell no. I always tip, in cash

TIP is an abbreviation for 'To Insure Promptness'.
It's origin was where a 'TIP' was given BEFORE a service was provided to insure promptness of that service.

p.s. I TIP according to service. I do not hold the server accountable for a mistake made in the kitchen.
