Tipping isn’t just for waiters anymore. Hairdressers, delivery drivers, baristas and others have all joined the fray. In fact, my establishments now include suggested tip amounts on your bill – often starting at 15% and going up.

Dr. Melissa Dallas, professor emeritus, department of hospitality leadership at Missouri State University, is in agreement with respondents to the survey, saying “the tipping culture has become out of control” and it’s partly because of the reduced profit margins experienced by many businesses in recent years. She spoke with Fox Business about it.
