Places in Texas Where You Don’t Have to Tip

(KNUE-FM) Just like so many other states right now, it’s clear that people in Texas are fed up with having a tip jar put in front of them at every business they enter. It’s gotten completely out of control and actually making consumers not want to go back to certain businesses to avoid their tip jar. But there are some places that even tipping experts say you don’t need to leave a tip when you are doing business with them in the Lone Star State.

It has nothing to do with being cheap, I don’t think most people have a problem with leaving a tip when they receive exceptional service. The problem is that we are being asked to tip everywhere, and it almost feels like the consumer now needs to make sure the employee is getting a livable wage. That should be provided by the business.

With a few exceptions such as a server at a restaurant where we all know those employees don’t make much per hour and are relying on tips.
