15%? Where I live it starts at 18%. Before we swiped/taped our own credit cards a tip at chipotle was unheard of. I go to Hanlon's razor here though. The POS system just defacto has this screen and no one removes it because some people do tip.
If I walk up and order something that doesn't require labor to make and I bus my own table and throw away my own trash, I don't tip. The business owner pays the staff from what I pay for the food. If not I'll cut the business owner out of the equation and pay the staff to make my food directly. They deserve the profit.
