Some people argue for tipping. Some people argue against. But the one thing that unites most people with an opinion on the topic is a lack of understanding of where the practice came from in the first place.
In this episode, Cal and Steph walk through the history of tip culture, how that led to vastly different norms around the world, and the confusing place we're left in today especially in an era of Square terminals and where tipping seems to be infiltrating the unexpected.
Has tip culture gone too far? Listen in to find out.
