I consider myself a generous tipper, but it has gotten outrageous. They want me to tip to buy a hot dog at the

game. They want me to tip for the people at Cafe Rio to make my meal. These should not be tipping places. The reason tips were put into place originally was to get better service. Then you realize what was a good tip 30 years ago is now a bad tip. It has gotten out of hand, but it isn't changing anytime soon.

Your right, that's a horrible opinion. Are you that guy who doesn't like pizza? That is another bad opinion.

Tipping should be reserved for things where you aren't doing the bulk of the work of ordering, carrying food, disposing

I love it. Tipping is very rewarding, for both the workers and the customers. I love the iPad tips too.
