“For most markets where DoorDash operates, customers are prompted to tip on the checkout screen, with a middle option already selected by default. If they want to, they can adjust the tip later from the status screen while awaiting their food, or even after it’s delivered. That’s changing today; while blaming New York City’s minimum wage increase for delivery workers, DoorDash announced that for “select markets, including New York City,” tipping is now exclusively a post-checkout option”
It seems so ridiculous given tipping fatigue, that DoorDash is making what should be a given sound like a negative.
I never tip and hope that voting with my wallet will cause more people to realize that they should be fighting owners, not customers or employees.
Hopefully you never eat at the same place twice, either.
Or else what?
“That’s a nice meal you have there. Be a shame if there were some bodily fluids in it.”
I’ve worked in food service before. Committing felonies by tampering with food is exceedingly rare, and not something people tend to do just because they don’t get tipped.
The only tampering I ever saw was when the owners visited and ran their mouths.
I watched my manager spit in chicken sandwiches at KFC when I was a young cook there. Imagine what I didn’t see?
I think it’s more common than you realize.
Did he at least have a reason?
He said he didn’t like the guy.
Well, it’s a reason, but not a good one.
Did you report them?
Because you saw 1 instance at 1 location from 1 person? Lol.
I love your blind faith in humanity, it’s quite endearing.
So no?
Not a risk I’d be willing to take.
Well, then you’re paying the price.
And you may pay in a different way.
Indeed.
Hey, good principled stance… I guarantee literally every server, and I mean absolutely every one, thinks you’re the asshole and they are 1000000% not thinking about the realities of the tipped industries when they see the bill with a zero percent tip.
Also, I kinda think you’re the asshole if you’re dumb enough to believe that you, the one you, is somehow going to change tipping culture in America by not tipping.
