I ordered some stuff to get delivered from Walmart, and they wanted me to tip the delivery driver! Fuck that! I'm not going to tip for that. Pay the drivers a living wage! If they don't get tips and don't get paid enough, then these companies just wont have drivers anymore.

Yes because capitalists are known for running out of service-sector workers due to low wages. Also learning from labor shortages.

I just don't get how not tipping workers is supposed to teach corporations a lesson. They'll just churn through willing bodies all the same.

well, there are only so many willing bodies out there. If enough people don't tip, then word spreads quickly and people don't want the job...
