Question: Tip for Carryout?

I have no problem with tipping if it is due. Although nowadays its pretty much mandatory or you get BAD service if they remember you anyway... some places even include it in the bill MANDATORY. Tipping originated by people wanting to grab the attention of the host as they were in a hurry, think a little extra money can get you infront of someone else to get your coffee a little faster and back to work you go... Now its just a excuse for employers to pay servers/cooks minimum wage because they can earn MORE in tips if they work their ass off... just my 2 cents.
