I disagree with introducing tipping here. It feels like the public is being asked to prop up the hospitality industry and cover for low wages. If workers aren't being paid enough, that's an issue employers and the government need to fix, not something customers should take on.

What do you think? Should tipping become the norm in New Zealand?

I have no idea why this is getting downvoted - seems like a nice relevant post for the community and a good conversation starter...

Edit: Looking better now. Possibly people thought OP actually wanted to introduce tipping.
