I served tables and washed dishes and ran cash registers while getting my EE degree. When I was running a cash register, I didn't ask for a tip when I rung someone up for a coffee or twinkie. I did get tips as wait staff because that's been a tradition for 100+ years in the USA. Don't assume when someone says something that you don't like that they were born with a silver spoon in their mouth.
