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.

      Don’t you think it’s the responsibility of the employer to pay well not the customer. Constant tipping could create an unhealthy expectation from both the employer and the employee. It can amount to slacking of salaries, services provided and any general interactions, if the tips are deemed not good enough

        Yes, the system is the problem. But it doesn’t make sense to fuck over the delivery driver to make a point. The tipping system in America is bullshit, but if you wanna support them, you tip them now and then vote in better workers rights later

          But by tipping you support this system. If people didn’t tip employers wouldn’t get away with paying peanuts

            So I hope you’re lobbying for delivery drivers rights instead of tipping since you’re so upset about the exploitation of the system.
