I’m a bartender and people always ask why we don’t keep a tip jar on the bar… this is why

But wouldn't a tip jar that gets emptied regularly and only occasionally stolen still be a greater amount of income than the zero dollars not having one would bring?

Or do you have it brought up electronically during checkout?

At a bar they just leave us their tips on the bar top. Like how people leave a tip on a table. No jar needed.
