I think tipping is the biggest scam ever. I don't tip and I encourage everyone to do the same.
Why don't you believe in tipping?
It is helping business owners with an "extra" income. And then most of that money is getting into the managers pockets.
While sometimes it might actually be a scam. Many workers are making the $3 minimum wage and it is normal to tip people for their services.
It's their choice how they want to react to me. I'm not going to be a chump and tip.
It is expected for people in America to tip their servers when they go out to dine. Even the people you are with might look down on you if they find out you don't tip.
