One time at the Starbucks drive thru, waiting several minutes for a cold brew, only a cold brew, I was irritated to see a very obvious tip cup on the drive through. After waiting much longer than it should have taken to pour a cold brew, the guy tried to solicit a tip on my card… seriously…It is absolutely irritating to have them not only provide slow service but then aggressively demand a tip for shitty service. I’ll tip when it’s appropriate, bartenders, waiters (20+%) and straight food delivery (fuck Uber eats, door dash etc, I won’t pay 50.00 for 30.00 in food and then tip, that’s stupid, so I don’t use it.)
Edit(I don’t use the food delivery services, I am not going to stiff their folks delivering food. )
My girlfriend and I went to a retail store one time and at checkout the cashier turned the iPad around and showed us a tip screen……
We need a competition for “most ridiculous place to ask for tips”.

Someone in this thread said that their self-checkout asked for a tip. I don’t know how one could top that!
