@observationswithmyeyes: I absolutely believe in tipping when it is the local custom and the service is at least satisfactory AND I used to overtip because: 1. too much compassion/empathy because I know that tip based jobs are harder than the general public acknowledges. 2. Fear of strangers being annoyed with me🤯 💡Now I notice when people try to rush me through these transactions of escalate to “prickly”. 💡This is why I tend to choose places that are already calm and I ask them to explain all of the costs up front. Unfortunately, an overly nice attitude paired with “don’t worry, we will figure it out” has usually meant someone becoming pushy or hostile later if I had follow up questions or confusion….#lifelessons
