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,

Absolutely! Coming from states where you do pump your own, it is definitely faster. At places like Fred Meyer that serve many people, attendants donโ€™t always get to the people who got there 1st. Arg!

Yes, but, I wish they all had those clips that allowed you to start fueling and then hang out in your car until the tank was full. Some still do, but, I feel like they're increasingly rare.

Nothing like waiting for the employee to finally get to refueling your car and then waiting again for the employee to hang up the hose. Having said that, I do use full service when in medically need.

It is better for the environment as the nozzle does not remain in the tank with fumes escaping until the attendant is able to return to your vehicle.

Let station owners decide how to serve their customers and then consumers can choose where to buy. I prefer to just take care of it myself rather than wait until the attendant gets around to me.

I have never had so much trouble getting gas as when I went on a trip to Az. last year. Can't use cash and couldn't get the gas to start because every pump is different. Had to get help several times.

The excuse that pumping gas is dangerous is ridiculous. Millions of people pump gas everyday without injury to themselves, others or their vehicle. It is worth it to me to pay for the service.

Self-pumping gas in Oregon would eliminate those jobs for people who currently do this service.

The amount of jobs that would be lost seems would be a blow to a part of the community that already struggles to afford the cost of living in our area. Job elimination for convenience, no way!
