Tip Jars?

Hey, will there be tip jars in the future? Or will you see to it that everyone is adequately compensated for their daily labor? Example: When I buy a cup of coffee, I feel obliged to contribute to the disproportionately large tip jar (half the size of the cash register and twice the size of anything else on the counter). If I leave without enriching the staff, will they collectively curse the day I was born? Will they remember me and weaken my next cup of coffee?

I would rather the merchant add five or ten cents to the price of a cup of coffee. Take the fickle consumer out of the equation. Eliminate behind-the-back cursing and awkward face-to-face encounters. The highest life form on the planet deserves better than this. I’m not sure how you solve the tip jar problem from reoccurring on Earth 2.0, God. I will leave that in your capable hands.

Come to think of it, will there be jobs in the future? If you are serious about completely redesigning the human race after you destroy all life on earth (i.e., Apocalypse), why should people have to “earn” a living?
