Tipping ‘nudges’ are now popping up on DoorDash. If you don’t leave a gratuity, you’ll hear about it.::DoorDash is the latest delivery service to nudge customers who don’t tip. It shows how intrusive tip requests are, and how important tips are to gig workers.

      But isn’t it only the front house workers and delivery people on this pay mechanism? Those people aren’t involved with a pickup order so you are just giving money to the very business that is already underpaying people. I presume some might split that tip amongst the servers and delivery people, but who knows? Even if so, this is really just charity on your part since those people weren’t involved with your food. I’m not going to argue with the ocean here - seems your practice is becoming quite normal, I just don’t understand it and think it sadly contributes to the underlying issue and keeps businesses more powerful and employees less.
