      They should, but they instead taught the staff to demand why you don’t want to. I refused in one place and was confronted with them demanding why I wasn’t giving them one.

      “Was there something wrong with my service? You know that the tip is shared between us and the kitchen…”

      I’m not joking.

        God, I encountered this once and had to ask for it to be removed. I countered with “are they paying you enough?”

        A little backbone from a few customers will make them hate using this system enough, it can be hoped.

        We had the shittiest service ever at Fogo de Chao and I tipped $20 on a $150 bill. The waiter actually followed us to the door questioning why the tip was low and insulting us.
