I pretty much ignore tip jars. If I feel someone deserves a tip, I give it to them. I want them to get the $, not split it up between a half-dozen other people.
Another thing on the same subject that irritates me is the mandatory tip most resturaunts add for large groups of people. To me, the tip is something given for good service, but to demand it be given is tacky IMO - And, I have noticed that those that automatically add the tip into the order usually give the poorer service to boot.
