No, because the entire point of a tip is to reward great service

What we should be doing is tipping better for great service and tipping less or not at all for poor service!

You tip the person who pours you a drip coffee or a tap beer, but not the person who lugs an 80lb box to your doorstep. Would you advocate eliminating the $1 handing someone a cup tip, because it is expected service and not "above and beyond?"
