The only way it’ll work is making tip culture illegal.
Raising minimum wage and undoing the underpaid tippers law.
There’s a special law that allows restaurants to pay something like $2/hr and expect them to get tips. Sure there is a clause for owners to cover the rest to match minimum wage but that’s still BS.
Again. Tip culture won’t go away until it’s made to by law.
It started out at bribery for better service at restaurants damnit. Then somehow got morphed into a law to allow owners to pay thier staff less. What. The. Fuck. Capitalism.
What’s worse. Carry out places all have tip prompts. A tip for what? Putting my donut in a bag? That’s literally your only job.
I never tip anywhere unless I sit down at a place to eat and actually recieve a restaurant experience. Someone cooks a meal and a waiter checks in on me.
Call me cheap or an asshole but I’m not tipping at any takeout spot.

Worse, it started out as a way to not pay non-whites a decent wage while ensuring they must act servile to get by.
