Are you talking about the Starbucks worker or airline pilots and (more importantly) flight attendants? I don't know how the pay scale compares for a regional airline's flight attendant versus a Starbucks "barrista," but I'm thinking the FA has to be up at 3 am to deal with a bunch of cranky passengers and (s)he are trapped in a metal tube with them. Seems by your logic there should be a tip jar at the front galley.
