Tipping is some of the worst form of payment in existence.  It&#x27;s completely unregulated from a consumer standpoint, and is therefore subject to <i>every single</i> bias one can think of - sexism, racism, &quot;attractivism&quot;?  Literally every single little thing that people use to incorrectly assess another person&#x27;s performance or behavior will be calculated into a tip.  Don&#x27;t like a person&#x27;s nose ring?  Lower tip.  Don&#x27;t like a person&#x27;s haircut?  Lower tip.<p>If a company were found out to be basing salaries on these things, they&#x27;d be sued so hard and so fast, their HR department would catch fire from the friction.<p>We <i>laud</i> restaurants when they do away with tipping [0], what&#x27;s up with the two-faced response to Uber and their tipping stance?<p>Tipping sucks.  Tipping absolutely sucks.  I&#x27;m <i>begging</i> you nice people to not push Uber into a tipping model just because you hate Uber.  Tipping is the <i>much</i> worse evil here.<p><pre><code>    [0] - https:&#x2F;&#x2F;goo.gl&#x2F;0oFRei</code></pre>
