Do you tip when picking up takeout?

That was awesome.

Lol that was a pretty spectacular sight.

I bet I could have pulled it off for $2.

Probably a quarter, it's a white upstanding citzen verses an underemployed mexican.

He understood economics though. Demand for wings was outstripping supply.

Some of you just look at tips way too narrowly, probably because you are looking for an excuse to be cheap. Sometimes you tip FIRST and get better service LATER or maybe NEXT TIME.

If you're poor, so be it, but then you shouldn't be out pissing money away in the service sector anyway. Pick up Burger King and a 40 and stay the fuck home.

God sometimes you amaze me with your ability to make sense.

If you are too poor to tip somebody fucking 2 dollars, then get ramon and a new job.

I changed my fast food reference. I didn't want Ramon to think I was targeting Mexicans or whatever he is.

LOL

It's true though, nothing is more horrible than being friends with "that guy" who only buys whatever beer he can get on special and the cheapest food. Then stiffs the bartendar at your favorite place, which forces you to tip him or risk being labeled as "one of them"

Ya know, in all my time in NY I have never noticed a taco bell btw.

If I'm too cheap to tip i get take out instead of delivery. If I'm going to tip someone anyway, why not have them earn it and DRIVE THE FOOD TO MY HOUSE.

Tipping delivery guys is one of life's true pleasures, especially when they are from a chinese food place and are clearly illegal. They act like the end of It's a Wonderful Life when you give them $3 on like a $6.75 order even though it's pouring and my food still got here literally 8 minutes after I hung up the phone.

Actually, I hope most of you continue being cheap, because that means I get maximum returns by throwing around just a little extra. I don't have to be big man around town to get better service from regular establishments, I just have to tip enough to make an impression, which thanks to you cheapass government cheese aficionados, isn't very much at all.
