am I the only person who is getting annoyed with the whole concept of tipping. say bah humbug if you want, but it's insane. Waitresses, Starbucks, hotel workers, cab drivers, flower delivery guys, etc... when is getting paid to do your job, not enough.
shouldn't tipping be used to reward those who go above-and-beyond, not just the bare minimum?
should i start tipping the employees at McDonalds now too?
Anyone who is delivering to you should get tipped IMO, but I am a former delivery driver, so I may be a bit opinionated on this. I always looked at it as "If you dont want to get off your ass to get your own food, and you want me to bring it to you, you should acknowledge that you didnt want to get off your own ass and compensate the driver/waitress/hotel worker."
