Normally, you're paying a tip on service. So, the waiter hovering over your table and collecting your order / refilling your drink / dusting off the table between courses is part of the dining experience. Its fee for service.
But yeah, now the credit card reader asks if you want to pay a tip to the fucking vending machine. Its asinine.
There's a self service store in the Newark airport that sells overpriced snacks for travelers stuck without any other options. It asks you for a tip while you check yourself out. As if paying $6 for a cup of juice wasn't bad enough already.
Price of the product and service is the list price. Tipping is extra
List price virtually never includes service fees and taxes, at least in the States. I swear, its like some of you people have never eaten out before.
I've been eating in restaurants from street food to nice ones on multiple countries, and continents. Service fee (and taxes too BTW) are always included in the list price. That's the default
What kind of shithole country you're living in?
Edit: since servers in USA are paid hourly (even if shitty), the service fee must be in the list price. it's just the fact that the servers are not paid enough, and the customers are being blackmailed to pay extra off the books
