I don't think anyone should expect anything, whether it is in a Starbucks or a restaurant, whether they have a PHD and MBA or whatever in there former job. If people who tip at Starbucks and other coffee houses figured out how much in a year they tip and then instead of giving to people who at least have a job gave this money to organizations that are helping people without jobs then it would make some sense (cents) or knowing a family in need and help there. And while I am venting the same goes for barber shops and hair salons.
