I tip at restaurants with waiting service

The minimum wage is not that easy to live on I'd imagine, and every penny counts

Depends on the service, and what mood I'm in, but I wouldn't give 4 quid to a take away, I'm with your step-dad on this one. Give him a high five from me.

Yeah not big tips but I tip like $3 for a delivery order (if it's like $17+). Usually $5-$10 at a restaurant split between the people I'm with if it comes out to anywhere around $100 total.

Thing is these days I tend to order off apps and pay on there, I very rarely have cash so don’t physically have anything to give them

I tip delivery drivers. And a £4 tip for a £36 bill sounds close enough to 10%.

I actually used to tip a fair bit, til I realised, the most thankless minimum wage jobs..well those don't get tipped do they? Like, nursing staff, people in care homes and the likes. And I would MUCH much rather be a waitress than work 12 hour shifts wiping peoples arses and being hit. I tend to tip more out of convenience than anything, as I said, nearest quid or whatever in taxis, and when its kind of..social pressure to do so like when out for meals in groups. But otherwise, it makes me feel..dodgy tbh.

Abroad I always tip though. Because I know they really really need it. Though managers and that tend to take it off them, greedy twats But in this country, so many are on minimum wage, so why single out a few (generally easy) jobs for special treatment really..

I didn't even know tipping delivery guys was a thing!? No never done it.

Although saying that, the delivery is usually from the kebab shop about 2 minutes drive away so. Not a big company or an order that's done some mileage!!

Yeah but I feel like that's because I've always worked in hospitality. Although I never expect tips in my job. I know some waiters/bar staff in other places expect tips and will be horrified when they don't get them.

I tip food delivery drivers, waiters, taxi drivers and my barber.

I don't tip if they've pissed me off mind (this is usually more of a taxi driver and waiter thing though) but surely that goes without saying anyway.

Yeah, also I think people don't realise that there are a lot of restaurant jobs that aren't even on minimum wage (in London at least)

I can't remember the last time I paid in cash for a delivery so... no.

A taxi from town to my house is £9.70 and I always just give them the £10. So I feel like that's my tip quota fulfilled?

In a restaurant, I'll tip for notably good service. Not "as standard". Again though I very rarely use cash anywhere and they don't always give the "add tip" option on the card readers .
