KingRevolver Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 It's a lot of pressure on me. I feel like I have to make up for other Mexis being cheap, so I over-tip delivery people so they think, "He's one of the good ones." I ordered Chinese food, it came to $17.50, and I tipped $10 on it. It's unreal how some people have to pick up the slack for others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Save the huge tips for a sit-down restaurant when the service warrants it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drivers make $4/hour while on the road and minimum wage back at the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedge Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 10 bucks is a fair tip to a delivery driver. For a $17.50 order? Seriously? 15% is more than fair unless he's driving a long way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankie Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I gave the pizza guy $4 tip the other day for a $17 order and when I checked my card he had added $2 to it. What a snake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ChrisHarvard Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 That's dirty tactics. I know bartenders that do that kind of shit, guys leave them 8 on a 60 dollar tab and they write it as $18. Best just pay with cash. Of course, if you're not a cheap fuck they won't pull these type of shenanigans in the first place.

spankie Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 I usually tip around $5 on a $20 order. so I figured $4 on $17 no problem. Now this rule applies strictly to pizza and chinese food. When I am in vegas or at a nicer place i'll tip 30% if it's good service. I used to have a russian delivery guy and I would pay him $4-5 in dimes and he would always be so happy, like he had just discovered One Eyed Willy's treasure. "OH TANK YOU SIR. TANK YOU SO MUCH SIR" Made me feel like a boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankie Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Also had a pizza guy in college come by and we were all broke, stoned, and drunk... we offered him option a) no tip... or option b) come in have a few beers and smoke, he choose option b) and stayed for like an hour getting buzzed before he took off, he was very appreciative. I guess it depends who your pizza guy is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
