How to deal with unexpected tip requests and other tricky tipping topics : Life Kit : NPR

What is the new etiquette for tipping? If an establishment is asking for a tip, it's often an indication that the workers there are not getting paid a minimum wage. If the subminimum wage is low, your tip will help the employee make a livable wage. The idea is that workers earn a subminimum wage and then customer tips make up the difference to get workers up to minimum wage. When deciding how much to tip, it can be helpful to look up the minimum and subminimum wages of your state, says Allegretto.
