I had a windshield replaced in my truck a few days ago. Mobile service, came to my work to do it. Guy gets all done, takes my credit card and then hands me his terminal……asking for a tip. Choices are 25%, 30%, 50% and other…..for a frikken windshield that they quoted me a price on.
I asked him, stunned, “you guys get tips, don’t they pay you to do this?” (Prob thought I was a d1ck) He says yeah I get a commission but the tips are to help cover my travel and gas. I reluctantly gave him $25 which was only about 4%. Maybe I should turn on the tips on my Square CC terminal and see what I can get from my customers
