Hey man,

Really great post. I worked pizza for almost ten years, delivered, managed, and all the inside crap. Years later, I still sympathize and I tip ok even when the service is crap, much better when its decent.
Thanks

dude, that was awesome
that “don’t be retarded” rule works everywhere - I work in a phone shop…a big “phones and equipment shop” signs in front, on the door and on the wall, and 100+ phones around me and a guy comes in and says “excuse me, do you sell phones here?”

Tipping is meant for GOOD service. If the service is good then it’s justified. But I live 1 mile from the pizza shop so petrol isn’t an issue, and I already pay twice as much to have my pizza come to me, why should I tip?

And here’s the big job issue - I worked in a service job, and it was a lot of lifting, building and carrying for customers. Did I get a tip? No, I damn well didn’t. That was a hell of a lot harder as a job than waiting for someone to cook something, have them put it in a box just so you can drive somewhere and hand it to someone. And you want a tip for that?!

Why do you think you deserve a tip because you’re dealing with food? Waiters get tips because it’s not just bringing you food, they take your order, bring it, make sure you have enough to drink and ensure that your meal is satisfactory.

You don’t like the meagre pay you get as a pizza delivery boy? Get a job where your tools of the trade is a moped.

Mandatory tipping, as in the US, is stupid. Tips should be given only if the service is good, not as a matter of course. It shouldn’t be a substitute for decent wages. This isn’t a dig at people like you doing a decent job, but at your ludicrously low minimum wage. Tipping is just a nasty practice really establishing a horrible master-servant relationship and should be done away with like dowries have been. If people were paid a decent wage it wouldn’t be necessary at all. I’m happy to leave a tip for good service (I live in the UK where tips are not expected, but I do tip for good service) but I don’t like the feeling that it’s expected of me, particularly when service has just been par for the course.
