Today we’re revisiting a conversation about the cultural norms surrounding tipping. Now that seemingly every business interaction feels like it ends with a tip screen, we asked ourselves: What are the new rules of tipping in Portland? And have we just reached a tipping point with tipping? Helping host Claudia Meza dig into this are City Cast director of digital strategy Bryan M. Vance and our very own senior producer, Giulia Fiaoni, and you, our listeners!
