I’ve been tipping pizza type deliveries 20% since Covid, but it seems high to me. What’s everyone tip their delivery guys? I don’t want to short them, but I don’t want to go broke either.

      Well as they say, every dog has their day. It could be that the driver is just having a shitty day and we all have them. I try to be empathetic. As long as the guy isn’t spouting out hatred and biogtry, they’ll just get a reduced tip. I’ve been known to give even bigger tips to delivery drivers that are just plain awesome.

      Because the penalty for being rude shouldn’t be starvation, probably.

        I mean, doing your job poorly usually gets you fired, which kinda does lead to starvation if you don’t find a different job. Why should delivery people be the exception?
