The worst are the ubereats tippers who dangle a high tip then they get their food and then remove it. Thieves everyone of them.

Quit then

Did a $454 two cart order for Instacart on Wednesday and zero tip!

We have a local forum list of non tippers where we no to not take or decline the order.

There’s a catch though for people if they pay with WIC or EBT for example they cannot tip with that card on file. Cash is also rare for some to have on hand.

I'm sorry but people on welfare should not be wasting it on a luxury service - I would hope it is banned entirely

Or maybe they should have delivery fees waived.

No need to punish people because they are struggling financially.

If you can’t afford groceries, you can’t afford grocery delivery. Sorry.

And sorry you can’t understand that elderly and disabled people exist, and the same reasons that prevent them from working also prevent them from grocery shopping. But let me guess- your pro-starvation and ableist philosophy stems from your “pro life” beliefs, right?

Then I guess the delivery people shouldn't expect tips when helping people who are struggling. They should be doing this out of the kindness of their hearts, not trying to take advantage.

And their job enumeration is paid via tips.

Our HHI is 800k and I can’t justify paying for food delivery + tip. I’m amazed that so many can afford it.

Why would grocery stores, which are in the private sector, do that? Why would apps like UberEats do that? They aren’t charities. They have zero incentive to.

Could be subsidized by govt.

I hope not. The SNAP benefit is already too high—it should be lower with the rest of the current amount going toward housing programs.

Too high?

You sound clueless. Go buy groceries for a family of four for a year and let us know how that goes.

We have an obesity epidemic. Going to the grocery store is good exercise.

If people are receiving the max SNAP benefits then they have some challenges that probably make it difficult to get to the grocery store.

It's really disgusting how some people like to punch down.

Why would the government want to encourage people to buy overpriced mediocre takeout food and pay high delivery fees plus tip? If anything they should discourage blowing the limited funds that way.

SNAP doesn't cover prepared, hot food. Just groceries.

More ignorance. Maybe you should learn about our government benefits before you shet all over the people who receive them.

Can you see the tips before you deliver?

On DoorDash, I know what the base pay is for this area. So I can guesstimate the tip. I also look at the mileage to the store and the drop of point from my starting point. I do quick math to determine if the dollar amount is worth it for the time and mileage.

EX. Deliver from restaurant 5.5 miles paying $4.20. I won’t take that as it is less than $1 a mile UNLESS it is headed towards my home for a break or end of the driving for the day. However going the opposite direction, forget it.

Let me guess, the nanny, housekeeper who shops for you, and gardner are all ok expenses? Not like you shop for yourself or do much else.

Get another job if you need tips

First PP and I don’t employ any of those people. I grew up very poor and cannot justify spending money on those services either.

Why you should tip good delivery drivers/shoppers.

1. It's not a job. It's a contract. 30 minutes approx. The apps pay them a small fee for accessing your request. That money is not enough to pay them for the service you request.

If someone takes their personal vehicle, drives to the store , uses a pcard to get $150-500 worth of groceries , shops the items, bags them, loads them up , hauls them up stairs etc. the batch fee does not cover the extra work.
