You don't have to tip the seating hostess because they get a cut of the tips you give to the waiters and waitresses in most establishments. I think the reason she gave you the look is because she's probably not really a cashier. I wouldn't imagine a restaurant strictly hiring a cashier to handle takeout orders. I'm not justifying what she did though. She sounds like a bitch. I'm just trying to put you into her head a bit.
I don't mind tipping cashiers when I pay in cash, but it's customary for them to leave a jar near the register for you to drop the cash in. Tipping them on your reciept isn't a standard procedure in restaurant or counter etiquette. I should know because I studied tipping etiquette in college for four years. Plus I can judge that PS3 game all I want because I totally got to play it at a friend's house for three hours straight!
