Tipping is hardly logical in this country. You tip a taxi driver but not an airline pilot. Who do you think is more responsible for your life?

You are missing the point. Please read my post above. If you want to order takeout food and not tip...order from a non-tipping/non-full-service establishment like publish or Subway etc! Publix cashiers gets paid WAY more than Servers (more than double) and Pilots get 10x what Taxi drivers make! Tipped employees get paid HALF of minimum wage to account for tips. THAT IS THEIR PAY. You stiff a server for takeout then they are taxed and still tip-out other employs based on a set percentage of sales regardless if its takeout or dine-in so they are PAYING to work.
