Bet this was at a pickup counter for a restaurant with no table service

I see them everywhere. The most insulting one was at sprinkles where I had to place order in the POS myself and the guy was just handing me a box from the shelf right behind him.

The most insulting one I've seen is at a self-serve convenience store in the Newark Airport. There is no staff that you ever interact with. Who does the tip go to? You for ringing yourself up?

I had a coffee vending machine in the airport asking for a tip. Incredible.

My job has an office in a multi-company building, and we have a self-serve lunch and snack station, and they ask for a tip.

Nobody is tipping that thing. They eventually removed the prompt

And that's why I don't feel guilty not tipping some places. What am I tipping for? Nothing.

I just got self-serve frozen yogurt yesterday, the only service interaction was the cashier telling me to put my cup on a scale and saying my total. What am I tipping for?

What am I tipping for?

The owners to pay their employees below poverty wages.
