How is working at Mod Pizza any more taxing than working as a cashier in a grocery store?  Or working in a dry cleaners?  Or working at the drive-thru window at McDonald's for that matter?  Why should we tip for takeout at Mod, but not at the grocery store, dry cleaners, and McDonald's?[/quote]

Yeah. Quentin Tarantino already did this riff 30 years ago. Mr. Pink was a cheap f&ck then, and you are now. Seriously, have a modicum of pride and self respect. [b]You’re this adamant about not giving an hourly worker a few dollars? [/b][/quote]

[b]Interesting.  So you tip the cashier that checks you out at WalMart?  And you tip the person who hands you your sandwich at Chik-fil-A (and the one who took your order)?  You tip the lifeguard at your community pool?  You tip your child's daycare provider at Kindercare?  You tip the parking lot attendant?  And the ticket taker at the movie theatre?  And more?  All of the hourly workers you encounter in life you tip them 15-20%?[/b]  [/quote]

+1  I am interested in this question as well.  Do you also tip the Amazon delivery driver?  Or the courier who brings packages to your office?[/quote]

For all the people repeatedly screaming about the necessity of tipping 15-20% for takeout (at places like Mod Pizza, Cava, Subway, Sweet Frog, etc.), why do you not answer this question? [/quote]

I don't think they understand that the people who are working the take out counter (in most cases) are being paid at least minimum wage and are not making the same $3 an hour as servers. Unless the restaurant owner is running a shady business, these employees should be making comparable money to the counter service workers at Subway, etc.
 
But they ask for tips at some of those places too so who knows.  [/quote]
