Bartender loudly interrupts customers' conversation to demand 20% tip instead of $1.50: 'This was funny and enraging at the same time'

The tipping debate continues! It seems like every time you look, there's a new restaurant, cafe, or bar in town who have suddenly installed iPads and those square card readers. Instead of popping a few dollars into a glass jar labelled "tips," you're now prompted to push the 20% tip button on an iPad. Sometimes you're being asked to tip a person who just handed you a drink that they grabbed from the fridge and opened for you. Is that really worth a dollar tip? 

The general rule of thumb while at a bar used to be to tip a dollar per drink, but it's possible that that tip range has gone up to adjust for inflation. And what about the baristas working at cafes? Should they receive a dollar per drink, or a percentage? Does it depend on the type of drink? Perhaps a barista making a 10-ingredient frappuccino deserves a better tip than the person who's pouring your black cold brew into a cup. It's all very confusing and up to your personal preference, and it periodically stirs up a big online debate about who's getting tipped and for which services.
