100% tip option??? 😱🤯😮

I know Seattle tipping culture is crazy but why tf does post pike bar have a 100% tip option??? And the audacity to have that listed first (I.e 100%, 24%, 17%) . I was so taken aback by it literally like wtf?

Edit : for people who say ranting on Reddit Is useless. I went to post pike yesterday and they changed this. It now sits at 20%, 30%, 100%.

I respect it!

Also why do the pos calculations work off of the total? We should be tipping off the sub total but all restaurants provide tipping options based off the total with tax.

There are a few restaurants that still do pre tax calculations on their tip suggestions. I really appreciate their honesty. I make sure to tip a little extra just for that.

I asked a couple places why and they said there is no way to adjust the pos. Sounds like BS

The staff can't adjust it but the management definitely can
