So where is a good ole Irish rebellion when we need one ?

One uniform fare fee gratuity policy no matter what country side of the big pond you are from !

Unfortunately this Irishwoman spent over a decade working for an American multinational so the tipping culture rubbed off on me, except for bars.. I never picked up the habit of tipping for every drink, possibly because I got carded *all* the time. 
I leave the gratuity/service charge as it is, and also give a bit extra tip & little Irish gift to my steward, the studio lounge barman and the solos host, assuming all do a decent job.  If I wind up using one of the other bars regularly I’ll give a tip to those staff too.  But I would still prefer to see staff paid properly instead of relying on tips. We did b&b at home when I was a kid and some of the guests would give myself and my brother a few pennies if they spotted us helping serve breakfast or changing bedclothes. Thankfully we didn’t experience any of the overly entitled types that make life horrible for people in the hospitality industry.
