Age isn't really a factor in the way you're perceiving it here.

There's a very large population of US Christians who think it's a sin to work on Sunday but who also go out to eat in restaurants when they leave church. That particular population of Christians is pretty demanding and on the whole are bad tippers.

I grew up going to several of those churches. If my mom had to work her retail job on a Sunday, the Church Ladies™ would tut about it and say what a shame it was for her to be working on The Lord's Day™. But then they would turn right around and head out for lunch at the nearest buffet restaurant where they'd run the server ragged for two hours and leave a dollar or two as a tip on their entire bill. They never understood how hypocritical their actions were.
