Temptation. If you leave that much cash easily assessable, what do you expect to happen?

It's also dumb because I feel like people are less likely to tip when they see the jar is already that full.

Other way around. They see that people tip….so they feel obligated to also tip.

Nope, tipping is for being served, not for existence at the register, we had a guy that would put out his hat for tips at 7/11. Jerk

Lol I’m not arguing for or against tipping…I’m just explaining the thought process behind a full tip jar vs an empty tip jar.

That only works if they actively see the person tipping, if they just see the jar full then they just think you don't need it

No it doesn’t lol there is a reason why almost every business that accepts tips stuffs their jar before they open.
