Thanks for the spelling correction, even if it was out of spite. I pride myself in writing legibly, but I honestly didn't know the spelling on that one. And to Mike.....well said. I agree 100%

Dan, that's a good point about the bags and insurance and stuff. Still, that should be rolled into the price, otherwise people have a tendency to not want to tip if they're already paying a service charge. Catch 22 with tips. If you don't get a tip, then you cry like a beeyotch and then do stuff to harm other people? That's extortion. Again, if you feel the need to get tips when you may not deserve one, you're in the...

Maybe they should cut out pizza delivery, and customers can drive their own cars to go get the pie and save that service fee. Also, how about dispensing with waiters/waitresses and make each restaurant self service... I ask those who pride themselves in dictating who gets tips and who doesn't...have you ever worked at a job where you earned tips? If so, how did you like it when you did a good job and somebody stiffed you? Did it motivate...

I tip. I tip 20%. I try to clean up after myself even though it's not my job. I am nice to the wait staff. I try to make their job easier. I do it because I know how it feels to work 3 jobs, one full and two parts. I know how it feels to put in endless hours slaving to the man only to get pooped on at payday. I have also thrown discounts randomly to customers that make my day, or make me laugh, usually to those that sound like they are...

I know what the OP is talking about here. Unless you've worked stock, you don't know what it's like. It's bad enough having to keep a store stocked on a busy day, take inventory, and do all the other clean-ups that come with the job,...

Ive been guilty of doing this on occasion if im in a hurry and decide i dont want something, although i usually leave it at the checkout counter or toss it in the goback cart, i try not to just toss something in a random place, cuz i used to work in a grocery store also and i hated it..i also stack up the plates and silverware when we finish eating at a restaurant cuz i used to be a busboy and hated stackin peoples plates for them..its a habit...

So what your saying is the pizza delivery guys time, gas, wear and tear on his vehicle, insurance and the sheer fact that he is doing to a service by bringing your food to you so you don't have to go out for it isn't worth anything? What does it...
