Do you tip when you order take out?

If yes, why?
Sometimes I do because I like to reward good service and sometimes I can tell who is a struggling student. So it is good to give extra.

No. I tip for delivery and for waiter service, but not for take-out.

Not for them to hand me pizza over the counter and they didn’t even make it. Delivery yes.

@Keepitsimple Right.. delivery I tip for or table restaurant service. I never even thought of tipping takeout as they are handing me a bag essentially. But I do commend the poster for maybe that lil extra (dollar/tip) just made their day.

Of course.

Delivery people are underpaid.
@beckyromero This refers to takeout not delivery.

Yes, I tip both.
No. I do tip in restaurants though.

I always do unless they are like 3 hours late and the food is frozen. :) I rarely order food though.

@WildernessWriterExplorer Once. It came so late I just gave up and it was so cold. Never ordered from them again.
@SW-User I would have given up after about 40 minutes.

@WildernessWriterExplorer I did. I was pretty surprised they even showed.
I do not. I am doing the work and not using them for service as I am using them for a good. I am doing all of their work and if the cooks received tips then it maybe a different story.

If I go there a lot and it’s a person I like interacting with... I might throw in a larger bill.

I don’t see the person as being that much different than a bartender.
Same .. reward genuine pleasantness and good service for those that need it.

Yes ... because it’s the right thing to do

I try to, just because I know those jobs suck.
