If it’s any consolation, Trump already appears to be moderating his policy positions.

As a British expat, let me tell you that not every visitor is aware of the tipping culture in the States. I have had to educate friends on a number of occasions.
Additionally, it’s worth bearing in mind that it’s easy to simply forget when you’re not accustomed to the culture. I’ve lived in the US for eight years now and still say Pounds instead of Dollars on the odd occasion.
With that being said, I do believe the system of gratuity for service has become a bit too pervasive, and even confusing.
Where do we draw the line? Do we tip the pilot as we get off a plane? Do we tip our child’s teacher? Do we tip the cable guy?
All provide a service, at the end of the day.
