getting offered government cheese for sexual favors. I admit you do play the part well...we all know you can't afford a fucking pizza delivered too.

Government cheese on some government bread with ketchup is about as close to 'delivery' as you get.

If you want to subsidize someone else pay, be my guess.

You sound like one of the biggest douches around. What is with you? Raised in a trailer park? Beaten by an alcoholic father? Picked on in school? Small penis? Come on there has to be some reason for you being the way you are. I'm sure it's your parents fault.

None of those, sorry. I don't give a crap what society expect of that i do. I don't give a crap what someone thinks of me. Just because it's standard in the industry to tip, do not mean i have to tip.

Yeah, but don't you have a wife and kids? You're on the internet talking about what a miser you are at this time of night when you have a family to tend to? Go spend time with your kids, or better yet send them to the neighbors house so they have a role-model around. I know, I know..... society expects you to be a loving father, so fuck that shit, right?

Comparing tipping to raising kids

No, equating being a douchebag to being a poor father.

You need to chill man. He doesn't like to tip and you don't like it. Who cares. Just leave him be. You're getting more worked up than he is.

Lol I'm not getting worked up. This guy just jumps into a bunch of threads to defend his right to be an ass. I really don't think he's really like that anyway. Probably one of those internet tough-talkers. Come on, this guy didn't even register for the draft.

lol thanks for reminding me that this is that guy. ok go right ahead and talk all the crap you want to him then.

lol... calm down people, no need to compare e-penises.

Do you have friends or a girlfriend? When you go out to eat with them, do you let them cover your tip b/c you're too much of a douchebag?

Oh wait....

wait, people actually tip if they already pay a delivery charge? why on earth would you do that?

it is not my job to make sure the pizza delivery kid is making a suitable salary. he is already making at least minimum wage, unlike waiters.

The delivery charge is not a tip. It doesn't go to the driver.

A straight answer on this from a typical suburban town:

First, 95% or so of people tip. For a $1.50 delivery fee the average and median tip is $2 easy.. I'd say 60% give $2. 30% give $3, and the rest give something else (mostly zeroes, $1, and a few high tippers).

The driver is usually compensated for gas only, around $1. Maintenance is not covered so the average drive is costing the driver about $1. So with a $1.50 delivery fee and adequate service, you should be tipping $2 minimum (in effect you're giving a $1 tip to the man).

In other situations use your own discretion. Free delivery you should pay a delivery charge anyway as that charge goes for the gas mostly, so $3 minimum (in effect a $1 tip). Some chains have started charging insane delivery fees upwards of $4, giving drivers only $1 or so of that. In this case fucking over the driver is understandable as the driver should find new employment and stop this practice, however in my opinion it is best simply not to order from those establishments.

I'm surprised that so many people don't tip, I usually only give $1-$2 mainly because I already paid the delivery charge... I try to just go pick up my pizzas to avoid the whole tip thing, but many of the places don't allow it after 10 or 11.

does it matter? you already paid for delivery. if you paid a "service charge" in a sit-down restaurant, then why would people tip? you are paying for that specific thing.

The only time I ever see a "service charge" in a restaurant that I sit down at is when there is a large party. I'm sure they have that just so that you don't stiff the server, who has less tables to manage overall because of the larger party. If the service was good, I'd consider tipping over the service charge, dependent upon the amount of the charge.

I'm sorry that you're such a tightwad who won't throw a buck towards the pizza guy making minimum wage or less and maybe getting a few cents to cover gas off that delivery charge while the restaurant hordes the rest.

How about we just ban you instead and continue to bitch and moan and piss all over each other in tip threads anyway? If you need a computer forum to look at porn, you're the biggest epic fail in the history of failboat retarded failness.

Your post needs another fail meme.

It's not about looking at porn. It's about being able to post a link to anything that could possibly contain a picture of a woman that could be considered remotely attractive. Even if that woman is not the object of the article. I mean we can barely link to pics.bbzz.com at this point.

QQ moar.

I am not as you say "QQing". I presented a legitimate counterpoint to your position and the best you can do is spout overused memes at me. I want to have an intelligent discussion.

Is it our fault they don't get a better job? Why should I have to give them more money cus they don't want to get a better paying job? Do you throw the McDonalds people a couple bucks just cus they're making minimum wage as well?

Same for food delivery people

Yes they do. They have to be better at their job. That's like saying someone at a high end firm doing the same job as someone as a small firm doesn't deserve more pay. There are higher demands, because in high-end restaurants the customers expect great service. The idea of tipping at expensive restaurants is basically to be more critical of performance when judging tip percentage.

If the guys at McDonalds were bringing food to my front door...

Hard to get a "better job" when you don't have many skills, it could be your second job, and/or you're a student in HS/early college.

I still think you're a tightwad for trying to justify your stiffing of the pizza man.

When you go out with friends, do you refuse to tip and make them cover your share?

That's fine that you can think I'm a tightwad for not tipping, I think you're retarded for tipping. It's all relative.

 

[Cheeseplug]

Of course I tip the delivery guy. It is a dangerous job, and on top of that they have to pay for gas and maintenance for their car.

There's no point in speaking logic to him. I'm sure his idea of a fancy restaurant is The Olive Garden.
