'bout the only place around here I have seen out of place tip jars is in the local Subway sandwich shop. They have two Checz working and I may or may not tip. Depends on how many buttons are undone on their blouses :-D

Well Pelican the First Tip Jar I recall ever seeing was Pre 1994ish in a place called Java City in Sacramento CA. Kind of like a predecessor to Starbucks coffee Joint.
Now they are everywhere I go, and seem to be the norm in many place of employment verses the exception.
The (2) most ridiculous place I have seen them were in a Retail Establishment on the Las Vegas Strip. Where you buy T-shirts, Mugs, Etc., and CHEAP Las Vegas momentous, and there was a Tip Jar at the Checkout Stand. Second was in a rural gas Station where a Block house was MANNED for those paying “CASH” for gas, or wanted a Bad of Chip, or Can of Cold Soda Pop that was offer for sale. There sat a Tip Jar?

I have threaten to have some business size cards printed that say:
A GOOD TIP
IF YOU DON'T BET
YOU WON'T LOSE
Drop one in the jar.
:-D Later, Pel

The simple saying that applies would be to get a better education that is the Door Opener to a Real Better Paying job.
That Tip Jar I spoke of in Sacramento had a note pasted to it that said: “TIPPING IS NOT A CITY IN CHINA” :-o :-o :-o

There's a Subway that I stop at that has a tip jar. They hide it when the district manager comes by, though. I leave $1 everytime I stop there, because I've tried about six different Subway's around this area, and not a single one can compete with this one! They make the best of the best when it comes to a Subway sub. The place is clean, the subs are put together so neatly they should be on a commercial, and the people (usually the same 3) are nice...
There is nothing wrong with a "tip jar". If you don't like it, don't use it. They are not going to think anything of it-there are plenty of people who "hate tip jars".

I would tell them I will leave a buck tip only if you give me extra meat. If you don't, forget the tip.
By the way, that one works like a charm in a pizza joint with any teenager working there. If they don't give you anything extra, tipping them only means you are being a chump.
The day I toss a tip in a jar at the counter of the local burger King to pay some minimum wage person paid to do his job is the day I get hit in the head with a metor.l
Why do I have to pay this guys salary. Why does not burger king pay him a liveable wage so they don't have to beg for coins like some bum on the street.
The entire world now has its hand out and expects you to grease it. Its a simple two letter word. learn to say it.
Pucker up, spit it out, here it comes.
No.
