I bought a bottle of water at the airport for $4.50
The POS kiosk asked me if I wanted to leave a tip. It was completely unintentional, but I chuckled at this dystopian scenario playing out, tapped "no" while starting to make eye contact with the cashier, they had a friendly smile so I just apologized but made sure to speak loudly and clearly over the airport sounds.
