It would be nice if tipping was just gone, and everybody got paid a living wage, like in most of the rest of the world. We're in a Nash equilibrium right now where if you don't tip, you're an asshole. Other people might even tip more if they hear about it, which reinforces the status quo. So I keep tipping well, and disliking that we're stuck here.
How can we end tipping culture and just have everyone be paid a living wage?
Project much? Sometimes I order food after drinking. Sometimes I do it when I'm traveling and don't have local transportation. Sometimes I do it when I'm stuck on a conference call.
That depends on the place. My local Chinese places all let you grab your own. Same for my favorite pizza place and their crushed red pepper. Much like your quote in my last comment, this one show your lack of perspective.
It sounds like your delivery service is already pretty consistently good without needing to tip, so by all means continue to do you.
I almost never order delivery, so I'm asking out of confusion on why someone who does use it does if they are that bad.
I do tip delivery because as I said it is expected. However I still contend it is unethical.
