After years of tipping 20-25% I’m DONE. I’m tipping 15% max.

I have always “over tipped” according to my husband. My father has always taught be to do 20-25% because people depend on it for their income. I have the means and I’ve tipped extremely generously. 20% for ehh service and 25% for outstanding. But honestly. I’m so fucking done with it. Service is sub par 99% of the time. And not only that, these large corporations HAVE THE MEANS TO PAY MORE!! I’m so over tipping culture. Tipping the cashier at a coffee shop, tipping at crumble when all you do is order on a screen, tipping when you pick up a to go order, tipping at a QUILTING STORE?! (To clarify, I don’t tip at these places but I’m just pissed off they even ask) I’m just so fucking over it. I’ve paid my dues. I’m doing 10-15% max from here on out and if it’s above, beyond and outstanding service than I’ll do 20-25%. Anyone else tired of tipping culture??
ETA: just had a handyman come to my house. During payment, THE SCREEN ASKED FOR A TIP! This is out of control.
