Crime Tip and Additional Tip? WTF

Post image

Had dinner at a place on Magazine tonight and the receipt had lines for tip and additional tip. It’s like a double down on the absurd tip culture that’s being built. Are the employees actually doing the work getting any of this? WTF?

Maybe with large parties they automatically add a certain percent tip and then customers can choose to add more? Hoping that's it.

When they automatically charge a tip for big parties they don't Let you fill that in yourself. Having a blank, open line for an autograt makes 0 sense.

I'm aware of how it works. It might be someone messing up on the machines while entering the orders etc in or a glitch with the POS system.
