It's been at least ten minutes since we've talked about tipping, so:

[MustangPoser]

Those people got fucked on the price. Back in the day if people placed an order that large it would usually work out to $10-11 per pizza. Maybe that's why they didn't tip for shit.

That's no shit. I ordered a large specialty pizza from Papa Johns yesterday with a pepsi + delivery charge, and it was $14ish?

I always tip $5 to delivery drivers. More if it's a place with a huge delivery area and I'm the asshole 15 minutes away (Chef Chu in Carrollton for example).

It's worth $5 to sit on your ass.

[Pro88LX]

we could always tell who the poor tippers would be by the order.

Deep dish meat lovers
wings
sprite or some fruit flavored soda

every. Fucking. Time.



"hi, your total is 21.64. Ok, out of $22? Do you need the change?"

lmfao

When I was in highschool I worked at BurgerStreet. Some church in fn'g east dallas ordered 750 hamburgers. I had to deliver ti because I was the only one with a car that could carry it.

Other people made up the hamburgers, but I had to load and unload it by myself. The deal was that they were going to tip me for delivery.

All I got was a "bless you". yeah fuck you too. I quit as soon as I got back.

...and are you suppose to still tip the sonic girls? since i don't carry cash anymore really I never have anything to tip them. At least Sonic is not as pretentious as most other places with putting a tip line on their receipts hoping you will fill in something.

On the rare occasion that I go to sonic, I still tip server. Why in the hell wouldn't you carry some cash on you?

[Trip McNeely]

I tend to tip a little higher than normal amount like 20-25% if I get good service. Then when I return, they remember you and you get even more stellar service. If you treat people good that deserve it, it will come back to you. Of course this is places I visit frequently from work, or home. If I am visiting somewhere I still try to take care of the person if they act like they really want to be cool with you.

Because this isn't 1922?

The church crowd is just as bad as Middle Easterners and Mondays.

Yep. Tip etiquette is a huge indicator on what kind of person someone is.

He mad

Fuck yes i am, lol!

Just got off the phone dealing with lazy-ass greeks who wont pay on a PO!

[JC316]

I have seen card machines not work, I have even seen places that don't take plastic. I always have at least $100 cash on me at all times.

I had a weird experience over the weekend. We went to a strip-center Italian restaurant (don't ask me why) and when we walked in, instead of being shown to a table, we noticed a magazine rack with menus on it.

So we stand there for a couple of minutes in the lobby deciding what to eat, then proceed to the cash register where the woman takes our orders. We paid, then she handed over cups for drinks, and tells us to sit anywhere we like. The drink fountain is self-service, as is the silverware, the napkins, plates, and condiments. Bread is not brought to the table. In fact, bread is a menu item, so you have to pay for it. Get your ass up and head back to the cash register, because no one is coming by to ask if you want anything.

The same lady that took our order brought our food out to us, and took away the plates when we were done. That's all she did. We got our own parmesan, crushed pepper, drink refills, etc.

So what is a good tip for this kind of service? I thought I was generous in leaving $10 on a $85 bill, but some others did not agree.

Do you tip the mouth breather that makes your sandwich at subway too?

Holy fuck balls, $85.00 at a strip center Italian and no waiter/waitress'?

Italian food is just as affordable as Mexican food, no way I pay that much. We went to Maggianos last week, two entrees, freah hot bread, two glass of wine with tip it was less than $75.00, no way this place was as good or better.

That's self service, no tip necessary.

I took a pizza and bread to a guy the other night his total was $21.57, hey gave me $40 and said keep the change. I was in complete shock. I saved his address and name so I can send him a thank you letter. As stated in a previous thread the fuckers that don't tip me or tip less than $2-3 I save there info as well, only they don't get thank you letters in the mail. Gas is expensive again and my company doesn't pay for my gas.

Hardcore. I wonder if he crouches behind their bushes and beats them up when they come outside with all the skills he learned in JROTC?

Did you ever consider he may have had more than 2 in his party?


I would have treated it the same as fast food. No tip.
