Absolutely not true. My act of leaving a tip on a table is most
definitely not "carelessness." Nor is it "unintentional" It is a
knowing, voluntary and deliberate act.

I have never, ever have to tip. That is my choice.
Furthermore: Once the money leaves my possession (leave it on table,
put it in a jar, etc.), I have relinquished all control as to what
happenes to any tip I might choose to leave.

If I want to gift a tip to a specific person, I hand it to him/her. It
is then his/hers to do with any way s/he sees fit.
