I'm sorry, if I'm buying a $4k machine the last thing I want to see is a tip % option. I'm all for them to make more money and have better conditions but no way this crap.

@paul +1. On the market I get groceries from, one of the stores has the PoS configured to ask for tips. I always decline. I don't know if I'm missing something in North American tipping culture, but I don't see why that specific store is expecting me to tip when all the others next to them aren’t.

@arroz what are you even tipping for, bagging your own groceries?

@paul Not even that! What I buy there (gluten free brownies) already come shrink-wrapped. It's literally grabbing it from the shelf and giving it to me. Which is what most of the other stores do as well.
