Of course.
We're not talking tipping 20% here people. We're talking pocket change, quite literally. People working service industry jobs behind a counter are already underpaid enough. I figure if I can afford to be buying a $4 coffee, I can afford to throw a few quarters in their tip jar (assuming the service is friendly).
I can tell you from experience working behind a counter, it really does feel good when someone tips you. Many people don't, so when someone takes the time to show a little appreciation it can really brighten your day. I've even had someone give me a $20 on a $4 order. Not that I'm at all advocating that, but it wouldn't kill you to throw 50 cents in the jar.
