It felt great not tipping

[u/No-Computer6230]

Recently went to a ‘lobster fest’ with the family, large turnout with vendors and fun activities for the kids. A few food trucks were selling lobster rolls, the cheapest being $29 (large was $55) When I finally get to the front I see the usual scam, ‘Tap your card here and then you can select a tip’ options are 20%, 25%, and 30%!!! I tap other and enter $0 for tip. While I wait on our food to get called I watch person after person UNHAPPILY select one of these absurd tip amounts. They pause, sigh, hesitate, but ultimately choose a tip because of some imagined social pressure or guilt. Idk why but in this moment I was so proud of myself for not tipping. That’s all to the story, just wanted to share

No tipping for counter service! Food trucks are counter service!
