Or they did, and find all the expected (and much higher) tipping now for everything ridiculous[/quote]

I was a waitress for six years. At various points I was also a hostess. It was my job to go in the back and bag up the takeout order. Literally my job. No one needed to tip me for that (and no one did). [/quote]

How long ago? I’m pretty sure the takeout volume is much higher right now, and seating/reservations much lower. And you definitely should’ve been tipped out by the servers. It’s part of the deal for taking a hostess gig. [/quote]

I was a waitress for many years in various restaurants and never tipped out the hosts/hostesses. It's actually forbidden in some restaurants because it's seen as influencing the hosts to seat you with the best tables and not seat evenly. [/quote]

One experience. How long ago? that’s the question. [/quote]

No, not one experience. I have worked at 8 different restaurants, from chain restaurants to fine dining, and never tipped out to the hostesses. Granted, this was over 10 years ago but even if the restaurants are experiencing more takeout orders than they have in the past, this has nothing to do with servers tipping hostesses. Servers have nothing to do with takeout orders--why should they have to tip out on them?
