Uber
Tipping was rolled out to all drivers in Chicago three or four months ago. When you add more and more drivers, there are so many drivers who increase their labor supply that they undo the entire tip effect. Some of those drivers work more hours because they're making more money. But since Uber only pays you when you have somebody in your backseat, it happens that you're driving around with an empty car more often. In the end, you earn exactly the same amount, whether you had tipping or whether you didn't have tipping.
