Drives me mad trying to explain...

Why don't people want to tip?
Because they want to pay the price stated and agreed, like all other goods and services.

But it goes to the staff... They need it...
So pay the staff more.

We can't afford to pay staff more...
So charge more, so you can.

But we can't put up prices...
But expecting a tip *IS* putting up prices, except it comes with deception about the price.

Please don't let mandatory/expected tips get in to the UK as well.
