I always tip well, but in this case my love of loud alarms would win out
Even for pick up when you’re not a regular?
Good on ya!
(I’m a firm 20% when I’m sitting down but I decline to tip when picking something up at least half the time. Definitely tipped 2020-2 though.)
at the restaurant i work at, we pool tips, and just cause you aren't eating in doesn't mean us in the kitchen worked any less hard on it. in fact, it's more work for me to do to-go orders, but folks seldom tip on them. it is very frustrating to me. had somebody place a $1200 order a couple weeks back, and even split 5 ways, a 15% tip on that order alone would've made it a good day, but i don't think they tipped a single cent.
I’m okay with punishing everyone else with that deafening alarm.
Definitely hitting the alarm and walking out of there ... I'll let them deal with the noise

They never asked for this. Give 'em the disposable foamies and make eye contact while pushing no.
I don't mind tipping but I it is my choice not yours
Fine by me, Im leaving anyway.
I am once again asking that we credit the artist, Soren Iverson.
The lowest tip value should be higher to reflect current tip pressuring tactics.
The tipping system in America is so broken.... It's no more than “we don't pay our employees, feel bad for it”.
Employees, on the other hand, should be upset at their employer for such practices, not at every customer who doesn't tip.
I'm gonna trigger that alarm and cheer.
“Cancel”
I would press "no tip" just to see if that claim is true.

I wonder if we can find a way to either hit it multiple times, or break it so it won't stop ringing.

The system would be fair if it was both positive and negative tips. Then at least I would consider tipping. It’s a but rude otherwise.
Omg, so many opportunities for evil:
- retrieve earplugs from purse, put them in, press the button, hand the staff a $5 cash tip and a pair of earplugs.
- loiter outside offering pairs of earplugs to anyone entering the business
- call the business, pose as a vendor so I get transferred to the manager, and play a recording of the sound.
- leave fake reviews claiming the employees are on a covert malicious compliance strike and to show solidarity everyone should push no-tip.
- before hitting the button ask to speak to the manager and push no tip while making eye contact with them.
The real problem is the employee who didn't create the policy would generally be the person subjected to any mischief so it'd lose its fun about the time the manager barred me from coming back the fourth time I no-tip stared them down.
mutes phone, proceeds.
Press "no tip" and sue them for hearing damage....
Seriously though, as a non American I only tip when the service or food was exceptionally good for the given establishment. People do however get paid a decent salary here, so tipping is optional.
