This tweet was from 2022. Can someone go check if the prediction came true? (startrek.website)

I make coffee at home. Always have.

But you know what is different? I don't feel bad anymore about giving a low tip or even not tipping at all because the entire concept has been exploited and inflated to insane levels across almost every industry.

I was prompted for a minimum 18% tip at the gas station when I bought a bottle of water and that was when I decided it was okay not to feel guilty about not tipping anymore.

I go out for coffee occasionally because it is my excuse for getting out of the house.

I agree on the tipping. If I'm serving myself I'm not tipping. I don't feel guilty and I don't care if they are looking. I sometimes tip if it is a holiday and I feel they should get a little extra for that.

Yes, occasionally if I'm meeting someone somewhere I will choose a local shop and I'm happy to pay just for the convenience of a "3rd place" to meet someone.
