Agree, but it has crept into our culture and it doesn't seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Check this out, I was on a website recently looking to buy a part for my Jeep. It is a small company that probably uses Shopify or similar eCommerce provider who have now integrated tipping into their storefronts. It literally said "our production team works hard for you, please consider tipping them". I was so turned off I bought the part somewhere else. Many restaurants are now adding a sustainability fee to your bill and they go out of their way to inform on the menu that it does not go to staff as a tip - that is separate. They don't tell where the fee goes or why they can't just price accordingly. Huge backlash on the way. Stop it people, enough already.
