Funny story, I was on a cruise in 2019 and the ship has one of those robotic bars (you know the cruise line) and I tried it as a novelty, it made my drink, served it to me, and I got a printout of the check, there was GRATUITY charged on it!! I complained, and they said, "oh, that money goes into the crew's sun shine fund and helps fund crew activities". I told them REMOVE IT! They did without argument.
