I’m fine with tipping in the places where it’s already expected. Wait staff and delivery and such. There those people live on the tips being given. Yeah the system is shit and we should pay them appropriately from the start, but refusing to tip doesn’t fight the system; it just stiffs a worker.
I don’t like it when a bakery or ice cream stand sale terminal prompts me to leave a tip. It makes me feel awkward for hitting no, even though not tipping for ice cream has been and still is standard.
Oh I hit zero consistently for the normally non-tipped services. I just feel awkward doing it. Feeling awkward isn’t enough to get me to do so, but it is enough to make me unhappy about being asked.

You gotta learn to get past the guilt. Just hit zero. They’re relying on your guilt to extract more money from you.
