    Not all slippery slopes are fallacies.

    Ever notice that all the counter service places are leaning into tipping because it became popular with coffee shops?

      Sure. And if Amazon ever asks us to tip delivery people with our own money we shouldn’t because that’s bullshit.

      That being bullshit has no bearing on if it’s good to click the button that gives someone $5 at no expense to you out of their employers pocket.

      If a counter service place has a button I could press to give them $5 of the stores money, I would press it every time. That’s not a tip because it’s not my money supplementing the employees wages.
