Tell me you don’t know how tips work without telling me.

I had a small coffee shop put a 100% tip on my card. Went back the next day and they wouldn’t fix it, so I called the credit company and had it charged back.

Something like this would be very helpful to someone who doesn’t check their statements weekly like I do.

Tell me you don’t know how tips are in the US without telling me. FTFY.

Yeah so I'm from good ol' Europe, where we tip as a feedback for a stellar service, not as an attempt try and help service workers get food and shelter to survive another week. So yeah, no, I don't know how "tips work", because apparently that also implies giving your credit card to another person, letting them go out of your sight with it, and charge you whatever the hell they want. I would also never give my credit card to anyone else. Either you got a means of payment where my CC doesn't leave my hand, or you will get cash. I'm not handing out my entire bank account to a rando.

Edit: s/it/my CC/ # for clarity

You talk very authoritatively about a subject that you just admitted you don't know how it works.

I don't know how doing heroin works, but I still know it's terrible idea.

Besides, North America doesn't own the concept of "tipping". You own the concept of perverting it into abuse, yes, but we do have (relatively sane) tipping over here. Which I do know about. But I guess you wouldn't know that, buddy, because the world revolves around North America, eh?

"tips are like doing heroin"

Well you seem like a reasonable person...
