[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least 10%. Otherwise, go pick up your own groceries.[/quote]

OP here. If everyone tipped 10%, these drivers would be making approximately $42 per hour by my calculations. You don’t think that seems a bit high?[/quote]

Most people don't have $200-300 orders. My last order was $100 and I tipped $5.[/quote]

This is the OP. I calculated that using the total amount of groceries they are delivering on a shift, which is $2500 (across 17 deliveries, so $147 is the typical delivery total). So I'm taking that into account in my calculations. $2500 x 10% = $250. Divide by 9 hours (length of shift) and that's $28. Add on the $14 base pay, that's $42 per hour. [/quote]

Jesus, you're cheap and petty and asking people to validate both.  You extrapolated out someone's pay for a job you've never done to make sure that it's within what [i]you [/i]consider to be an acceptable range for that job?  Petty.  Tipping 3-5% is cheap.  If you aren't willing to tip appropriately, go to the store and get your own food.

I don't miss the grocery store and understand that having someone pick my items, bag them, and drop them at my door cost money, hence markup, service fees, and tipping.  Hilarious that DCUM, famous for it's HHI bragfests is cheaping out and policing the wages of people who didn't sit on their asses in their home office all pandemic.  Classic.[/quote]
