Tip Toeing Away from Tipping
We should have no need to tip service people in NZ.
We have generous minimum wages for all working sectors unlike the countries where tipping is outright encouraged/expected and in some instances, demanded.
For instance, I think its New York where the minimum wage for waitresses is $2.50 an hour. So tipping brings up their weekly earnings to something more in keeping with survival.
Here as in Australia, the minimum wage is in excess of $15 an hour and in many instances the staff get higher paid.
So we have a different system for earning wages than does many countries and thus we don't have to tip and should not be "forced" to do so. We have many people using services who are themselves on the minimum wage or not far removed. We don't need to make it any more expensive for them.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
Wanted a person please to re string my clothes line.
