Maybe because people will stop ordering from them if they jack up their prices?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if anything the ones that don’t have an incentive for people who want to penny pinch. Tim Horton's really needs to improve their MBA programs. No bueno!

That ain't none of my goddamn business. Restaurants have been happy to have predatory tipping "wages" for decades. Sucks, but no one does shit about it. Oh this is the restaurant's fault and not the government's? News to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, many restaurants in NYC prepandemic tried switching to a no tip format and were met with massive backlash and had to revert. Until this comes from the government, it's never going to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Figuring out who to tip and who not to tip is confusing as fuck. I tip anyone who does something for me at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this case we hired a house cleaner to do a deep clean, she was gonna spend 4 hours and ended up doing ~7-8 and skipped lunch (we did offer to get her something, she declined). In my opinion it was the least I could do and will definitely hire again. I'm in a fortune position where I can afford to do it, and she was shocked by the tip so if it can make her life a little easier then I'm happy with it. I honestly thought it wasn't enough for what she did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamer.tv Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 I know these facts, but take away is rarely a pre-planned decision but usually born from a busy day, tricky toddler bedtime and a lack of energy. Sadly, with my own circumstances relating to that, it’s unlikely I’ll be making a trip out anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzzzle Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 My favorite postmates places are the ones that allow you to "purchase" tip money for the staff. Of course, that makes it even more expensive, so if you're tipping both the staff and the driver appropriately, your cost per order can basically double. But, if I'm ordering postmates, it's because I 100% *do not want to leave my house*. Apparently I'm willing to pay a premium for that.
