Do I tip when picking up carry out

[Anonymous]

From a sit down restaurant?

I do 10% or maybe a little more, someone has to pack it up.

Yes, tip about half as much for carry out or counter service.

Also, 18.5 rounded up to an even dollar, not 15, is now the standard.

No

I agree that 10% is good. I usually do 2-3 bucks, but never more than that.

[Anonymous]

Hell no. Tipping is for service.

I worked in a restaurant making salads, plating desserts, packing to go,orders and cashing out the take out orders. The take out orders were definitely the most time consuming. Someone is serving you. That said, most people don't tip.

Yes, I tip about 10%. Tom Sietsema says you should do this, FWIW!

[Anonymous]

No.
