Wait, you guys don't pump your own gas by default? Is this some American thing I'm too europoor to understand?
This meme isn't implying that it's unusual to pump your own gas. It's implying that tipping culture in the US is progressing to the point of asking you to tip when you didn't receive a service performed by anyone since you did it yourself.
Self service is the default for most of the US. New Jersey and (I think) Oregon require full service gas stations though.
Today I had lunch at a restaraunt, I was given the option to tip so I did, expecting to get service. I got the fast food treatment, they threw a tray on the counter that I had to pickup and when I went to leave they made me bus my own table...
I've got family that used to rely on tips so I've always been a generous tipper. The recent tip culture has completely changed me though and now these expected tips just piss me off.
we have started carrying cash just to avoid the tip screen at places like this...
