I quit tipping. That is not true. The last pizza I had delivered to work I gave the lady a ten. Physically gave it to her. Not added it to a app that you know is going to give them less than the tip. If they give them anything at all. I quit tipping through the checkout/payment process.
And I do not do delivery apps.
As a service person, this sounds great. You actually tip your barber more than I do.
The only thing I think you didn't account for is fancier bars with elaborate cocktails, which tbf most people do not frequent. I'd do 15-20% for those, simply because it's more involved service and more involved drinks.
For me there's 3 tiers
Takeout/drive thru food of every kind? No tip. If it's labeled fast food and I have to drive to you to get it, you can pry that shit from my cold dead heart.
Family owned non-chain restaurants. That's a tip. These people out here trying their best against a McDonald's franchisee. Easily worth a few extra.
Delivery is where I tip, they put extra wear on a car and had to put up with the American public on roads between here and the store. That's worth the extra $5-10 Dollars. Especially if it's raining/almost midnight.
Pretty much the same, delivery I tip based on how much stuff, how difficult, or bad weather is getting it to me. NOT on the item cost. It's not any harder for the delivery person to deliver sushi than it is a breakfast sandwich.
I went to get blood lab work done today. When I went to pay the kiosk asked for a tip.
I ain’t never been into tipping as I’m not contributing to this system by playing along.
Sure it sucks if you’ve gotta work for tips but still.
i stopped tipping when i was double charged for the tip included.
i tried keeping track of each POS that included gratuity but i can only get burned so many times before i stop using that stove altogether.
Gotta love corpo news.
have made some people stingier
They’re no longer appreciating service industry workers
Shut the fuck up and pay them a living wage you animals. Don't try and continue pitting individuals against each other. "Blame the consumer for everything" is so played out at this point.
Pizza Hut prompted me for a (minimum) 18% tip on a take out order. I could see tipping for takeout if it's a large, complicated order, but this was not. 18% is for standard table service.
they should honestly ban tips on credit card machines and mandate a "cashback" option instead allowing 1-10 dollars of cash back.
This is the worst I've personally encountered
Other > zero
Shit like this is a good way to prevent me from returning. I don't want to feel bad about giving someone money I didn't need to and if I'm pushing the lowest recommended amount it feels sad.
Returning? I wouldn’t even be completing that order.
I think a lot of these "cab companies" use the tips to pay the drivers now and take more for themselves.
If everyone stopped tipping at the same time, say labor day, then businesses would need to properly pay their staff again. As soon as tipping became expected the whole system was fucked.
