It is awful when you feel obligated to tip, even if no actual service is provided. The whole machine tip deal needs to end! I only tip with cash!

I dislike being "guilted" into leaving a tip if it is not applicable.

If you don't provide a service like serving the food in a restaurant you shouldn't get tipped! Let people decide IF they want to tip, trying to force them by setting the % is counter productive and shameful trying to make the customer feel bad!

Tips are regarded for the service that is provided to the customer not because you had a server. It starts from the time you arrive until the time you finish your visit. Greeting, table, silverware, dishes, cups, food ordered, food received, temperature of food, quality of food. etc.

Tipping was for good service. Now it's expected no matter what. Now you have to manually change tipping options when you order online. Why should I tip then? They are doing nothing.

I will tip generously for excellent food and table service. Neither of which can be found at most places in Bend these days. 15% has always been the standard, more for outstanding performance. Tipping for drive through or take out, no.

Drive throughs and places where you're just picking up a to go order shouldn't be asking for a tip. I tip waiters, or my hairdresser for a SERVICE preformed. Tips shouldn't be considered part of a persons hourly wage.

Businesses are actually being hurt by extorting customers for tips, making it less likely for some customers to return. Why not just include a flat service fee on the bill included in the price quoted in advance? Many restaurants are taking that route to ensure their servers receive a fair tip.

Get rid of tipping. Pay your staff enough that they don't need to get tips

Leaving tips is just a way that the corporations can lessen the employees pay and use the tips as part of their hourly wage! Giving the corporate more money in their pockets and a way out for not paying their hard working employees the full amount of their earnings! Taxes take out way too much now!

It is very awkward, especially when tips screen comes up in a non service type of business. Tips should be on service received at a restaurant, not a pizza place for example. I mean tipping when you just ordered something is absurd,

I base my tip on the service I receive and don't appreciate being guilted into tipping for bad service.

Switched to YouTube from Cable like it so much better because of what we normally watch is programmed for us.

I'd say it's like 60/40 in favor of things like user generated content, but it has more to do with time than anything else. Due to things like work and chores, I just don't have time during the day for movies/TV. But for a few hours in the evening, I tend to watch more movies/TV, which I prefer.

This is one of those where I'm voting the honest truth, even though I'd prefer it be the other (while still making time for Geekvolution, of course). I think it's because of how casually I can spend hours on YouTube, as opposed to being intentional about catching up on content I intend to consume.

Even a friendly dog with excellent recall can cause real problems for the owner walking their reactive dog on leash; a dog running free is highly exciting to other dogs; it's not fair for the owner of the reactive dog to have to deal with that overstimulation in a "leash only" area.

I recently I commented that it is not fair. But your comment makes me feel incorrect. I have had a reactive dog before and I feel that your comment is valid.

If it is a law and you break it regardless of what it refers to that is breaking the law- which by definition is criminal. If you put your pet in a situation that is unsafe that is your responsibility and ergo you are a bad pet owner. Pets are like our kids, it's our job to keep them safe.

yes because they are putting their dog as well as people with leashed pets at risk. Not all dogs like other dogs and not all people are comfortable with strange dogs running up to them.

There are laws and rules for a reason. No one should think that laws and rules don't apply to them. If they want their dog off leash then go out in the woods where no one else is or to a fenced dog park.

BECAUSE most dog owners that do this have zero respect for others or property.. NEVER pick up poop and feel entitled

There are leash laws for good reason. On a side note Bend Parks and Recreation need to put up signs at dog parks reminding owners that they are liable for damages their dogs cause to other dogs or humans under Oregon law. Bend PD treat dog parks like they are outside of their jurisdiction.

A bad dog owner is someone who is not able to care of the animal or mistreats the animal. The person is just not considerate of others and will break the law for whatever reason they may have. *if you have an aggressive dog it is the OWNERS responsibility to keep the dog under control anywhere

There are many factors, if your dog has great recall and obeys to stay in a heal being off leash is fine as the dog is still in verbal control. Dogs that do not listen should not be off leash.

No, that's too big a generalization. However, those owners should never let their pet off-leash in those areas.

Maybe there pet is trusted and not reactive. Why does a none relative happy pet need to be restricted?
