As far as take out goes, if you go into a place a lot and want to get special treatment your take-out order, then you might wanna tip. It certainly doesn't guarantee anything, but it's never detrimental. If you go into a place once a year, then nobody's gonna remember you unless you starting blowing yourself in front of the counter. If you go to a place once a week for a good while, tipping, no matter how small, will get the staff to remember you.

And who is this stupid old bitch whining about tip jars? Who gives a fuck? If I feel like tipping, I'll tip. Just because there's a tip jar there doesn't mean I feel forced to tip. It may remind me to tip if I feel satisfied with the transaction, but it's not like I see the tip jar and think "Damn...not left with much choice here...oh well..I guess I can pass on paying that light bill this month. The jar was there. I gotta respect the presence of the jar!"
