I occasionally go to a liquor store where the till asks if you want to tip, and it's the most ridiculous thing ever because it's a small store and the clerk isn't helping you find shit.

and the clerk is paid more than the $2.whatever per hour that sit down restaurant wait staff get.

In this specific instance, not much more, because I live in one of the few states where the minimum wage is the same for tipped and untipped workers (although gig drivers are still getting screwed here).
