Well yeah. When you eat at a restaurant, and tip, generally you’re not intending to tip the solely the cashier.

Before chanting along with the hate chant just think for a second. When’s the last time you tipped a cashier, with the intention of the tip going to the cashier and none of the rest of the staff?

I never intend for them to go to the manager.

Um...yes I do. If I enjoy the service of one particular waiter, I expect that the tip (at least the majority of it, let's say around 75-90% if not 100% of it) goes to the waiter who served me. If I'm tipping a cashier, I just give him a few bucks and tell him to pocket it discreetly.

That's right folks, this is why you don't tip cashiers or anyone else for that matter unless they get sub min wage rate.
