    Not usually. The cost of food should cover the cooks on top of the management should be paying their cooks adequately. Waiters and waitresses technically shouldnt get a tip either but its something thats been common practice since the wage cuts to restaurant staff all the way back during the prohibition.

    Depends. I do when I pick up restaurant food. But if it's like pizza, no.

    Yes, though not as much as I would if I was receiving in-house service. I know the BOH they are doing most of the work when it comes to take-out. The servers/host and expeditor (If there is one) play an important but very brief role in the take-out process if the server fucks that up somehow I would ask for the tip to go to the BOH, fortunately, that hasn't happened...yet.

    Do some research before you throw your money in the trashcan cuck. I'll tip good service if I'm out.. but if I'm picking up they can suck my dick.

    K, I still stand by my statement. Make up all the reasons you want as to why you don’t want to help out some minimum wage folks who could really use the extra cash, even if it is a tiny amount. It all adds up.

    "make up" spoken like a true libtard.. ree louder I'm sure you're on the virtuous side here.. I'm just saying.
    Why am I OBLIGATED to pay you.. for a job you SHOULD be getting adequately paid for.

    Spoken like a true selfish asshole... I don’t care enough about politics to call you whatever slur there is for right wingers.

    I’d just go with idiot.

    The reason the system works the way it does is conservatives refuse to allow wages to be based on what the work is worth, they’d rather pay off politicians to keep wages low than spend the money on their employees

    I don't consider myself right wing. Probably more right wing than the extremists on this site. I get that you got your own views and you're your own person my guy. I'm just saying I'm not obligated to tip just because everyone says thats the norm, when it wasn't the norm for such a long time. Europeans find it weird too.

    I wasn’t speaking about you specifically, but judging by your reaction, the shoe fits - you’re a selfish **** with a slow brain and a god complex. You’re not worth more than minimal effort

    He was talking to me.. thus you were talking about me. I really don't care what you think I've seen enough of the garbage you spout to know your grip on reality and how things actually work is weak at best.

    sit down at restaurant - absolutely yes
    picking up my own food - nah
    delivery - absolutely yes

    also some uber driver called a local radio complaining that he might get one tip all week out of all his deliveries then i looked up the uber tipping policy and it discourages people from tipping so i dunno maybe thats why

    Businesses use tipping culture as an excuse to pay their staff shitty poverty wages.
