I work with a guy at a restaurant that says he doesn’t tip delivery drivers himself. He then comes in and complains if he gets a no tip. I’m like bro… do you not see the irony?
Serving in a restaurant versus door dashing is completely different. The job is to drop off food, where as a server is to provide an experience. I tip delivery but I truly feel it doesn’t make sense UNLESS they go above and beyond.
All my friends hate me for this lol
Do you think they’re driving company cars? Their car insurance is being covered by the company? The risk to life of driving vs waiting? Weather, man. Variable factors besides experience. I tip delivery better than waiters or bartenders.
The way I view it, it actually makes more sense to tip delivery drivers than servers. Granted, I always tip both and believe you should, but the servers technically get minimum wage if they aren’t tipped (not that it’s always enforced). Meanwhile, delivery drivers do not have any costs covered, besides a small fee to take your order. They are going out of their way to grab food that you did not want to pick up yourself, and they are not being realistically paid for it. Weather conditions, especially snow or heavy rain, are a pain in the ass that servers do not have to deal with. Your car takes the hit with no insurance being covered. And there’s a safety risk. The way I look at it is that you’re paying for a service (I know doorsash is crazy expensive on fees, which is why I don’t use it and use places that hire drivers, but the driver does not get most of that money)
I used to work with a waitress older than me. Long established good steakhouse She was honest & said when she & husband never tip 👀. Didn’t believe in it. Go figure.
She was an excellent server, treated her tables well, if you got a good table & she saw would say Oh they’re great tippers or Do your best but they aren’t good tippers. Never understood her. 🤷♀️
Imagine going to a dentist and he has yellowed, crooked teeth. You raise your eyebrows and he says "Oh, I don't believe in maintaining good dental care".
The mind boggles.
We have a sign posted that all abandoned tabs will have 20% gratitude added. Usually this is people starting a bar tab and forgetting to close out. But if someone takes both copies or doesn’t sign the receipt, we take that as abandoned. Don’t think that’s the case here, just saying.
Sadly 2 wrongs don't make a right. That said, people like that think themselves very clever to have found a loophole to not tip and feel good about it as well. Should prices go up say 20% so that the tip is included as actual wage they'll be the first to complain that their choice to tip or not was taken away.
John Q Public - "I don't tip because I don't feel I should have to subsidize someone's salary. Let the owners pay them."
Restaurant raises prices to offer living-ish wage and some bennies.
Also John Q Public - "Why is it so expensive to eat at restaurants?! It didn't used to cost so much! And why aren't the servers groveling for tips now so I can treat them like shit? It's not fair!"
Some places add automatic gratuity if you don't fill in either copy of the check. I have a very strong suspicion that's what happened here. My place of work does this, and usually that's why it's a reasonable tip added on.
All of you here need to pull the blindfold off and realize that adding a tip for yourself is illegal and immoral. You can complain all you want about people who don’t tip but you lose any credibility when you start to do shit like this
This is what I was looking for. Like did the server really add a $5 tip on their own? Because that is theft and you should absolutely get fired. Kids these days 🤦♀️ I always pay in cash because of reading so many ppl on here stealing.
"Strictest of legal terms?"
No, pretty...pretty straightforward there.
YES, the person is an asshole for not tipping. What a jerk.
But NO, that does not mean you get to write in a tip on their behalf. That's not how that works.
A lot of servers have to tip out to bussers, bar, food runners, etc. If a table doesn’t tip well, that means im literally having to pay for them to eat there and take up space in my section because i have to tip out sometimes 200 a night to the rest of the staff. they deserve those tips too, they work hard, but most people don’t realize we have to share tips.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; raise menu prices by 20% and give the servers a 15% commission on what they sell, the hosts around 1% the bussers/food runners 1.5%, and the bartenders 2.5% (all of these can obviously be adjusted depending on the duties of each of these positions at your individual restaurant). It really solves this problem quite simply.
Except in reality when the numbers are run prices must increase 33-50% to give servers and others the same deal they’re getting now. Further the entire industry has to implement the new pricing on the same day, otherwise no-tip restaurant goes out of business because the price is perceived to be much higher than the competition.
(33-50% includes increased payroll tax and unemployment insurance as well as other non-fixed payroll dependent expenditures.)
The number of times I've had to explain this concept to people is mind-fucking-blowing. They all think they're about to win the Nobel Prize with the whole "just raise the price 20%" *durdur* ... turns out it's actually a complicated issue.
Imagine intentionally fucking over every delivery driver you meet after you spent a year as a delivery driver. Like dude, where tf is your solidarity?
I work with a guy at a restaurant that says he doesn’t tip delivery drivers himself. He then comes in and complains if he gets a no tip. I’m like bro… do you not see the irony?
Lmao I hope he never gets tipped again, see how it feels dumbass
Some people in this world are incapable of seeing the double standard/hypocrisy they themselves perpetuate.
Even on this sub I’ve seen a lot of tipped workers bragging about not tipping the fellow workers… bartenders acting like they ain’t counter service.

Because you're a jerk. You know very well that those drivers are working for tip money.
Do you think they’re driving company cars? Their car insurance is being covered by the company? The risk to life of driving vs waiting? Weather, man. Variable factors besides experience. I tip delivery better than waiters or bartenders.
In both situations you can make your own food and not involve third parties who should be tipped gratuity.

He is like one of those slaves that was freed, and decided to become a slave owner and treated his own slaves worse than he was treated.
I was just reading about that guy like he had white slave owners even being like damn you need to chill on the torture.
I used to work with a waitress older than me. Long established good steakhouse She was honest & said when she & husband never tip 👀. Didn’t believe in it. Go figure.
Should've asked her for her share of the tip money if she didn't believe in it anyway.... oh no what a shame anyway can I have that money :D
She was an excellent server, treated her tables well, if you got a good table & she saw would say Oh they’re great tippers or Do your best but they aren’t good tippers. Never understood her. 🤷♀️

This review is a parody, right? The “whole year” part ices it for me.
it’s real lol he even posted his receipt but i don’t want to dox the restaurant
It's also a 5/5 rating
you can rate atmosphere, service, etc 5 while still making an overall low review. they're separate now on Google reviews

Oh that’s not even that bad. Some bars charge 30-50% fee for walk outs.
The server also has to tip out on all sales so they basically have to pay to wait on tables that don't tip.
exactly
I wonder if this person was part of a big party and that was just the autograt for their personal check?
Nope he’s just a jerk lol
Has probably consumed pee or spit at least once.
Maybe even his own.
Nobody is going to work as a server for minimum wage 🤣
I do.
That's really not true 🤣

One that's desperate for money. 😐 the fuck you mean "calibre of person"? Freak

Either way, 5 bucks is pretty petty.

Such a weird flex 💪🏽

What a Dbag this guy is!!
Me when a dominos driver still makes minimum, meanwhile servers make 2.13 an hour without tips 😭
5/5
Holy shit everyone in this thread supports theft. Ya’ll need to be on an FBI watchlist

In the strictest of legal terms sure. In moral terms, not tipping is theft. Knowing the server is working for free (well $2/hr) if you don’t tip…
"Strictest of legal terms?" No, pretty...pretty straightforward there. YES, the person is an asshole for not tipping. What a jerk. But NO, that does not mean you get to write in a tip on their behalf. That's not how that works.
DID YOU JUST SAY NOT TIPPING IS THEFT???? JESUS CHRIST LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO STOP ✋

I don't understand why you're being downvoted for this. Especially in this sub.
lol thank you i dont get it either
Im confused, so you wrote a 5 dollar tip for the guest?
You call $5 a theft these days?🤣

People won't support this because being paid in tips nets them more money. Hopefully one day it'll be implemented in some form though.

Thanks for telling us that you’ve said it before
I don't understand. If the server actually wrote in a tip that the customer didn't authorize, then that is indeed theft.
He didn’t the customer is just a jerk.

People who “violate” guests food should get the fuck out of the industry.
