[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By the way, next time you open your mouth and say "Please put the bags on the counter."[/quote]

I don't have enough counter space for him to put all the bags on the counter. It would have been nice if he would have showed me which of the bags had the eggs in it. But his job isn't really to provide this type of service, it's to take my groceries from his truck to my kitchen. What about the lowly paid workers who filled my order and lovingly put my Romaine lettuce heads in separate bags. Shouldn't he or she get a cut of this gratitude? [/quote]

How is your solution -- tipping no one -- helpful to them?[/quote]

It doesn't help them. My point is that I don't understand why the Peapod delivery guy who is just one person in the chain of people involved in getting me my peapod order the one who gets the tip. I understand why I tip the pizza delivery guy - he's using his own car plus the delivery is free. I tip people at the salon because they give me special, personalized service and I want them to continue giving me this service. I tip the cab driver so if he sees me hailing a cab again he might be more likely to pick me up. I tip the waitress because I know she or he survives and depends on tips. I don't see how any of this fits with the rationale of tipping the Peapod delivery guy. The rationale here seems to be that I should tip him out of pity.

You are stupid.Why tip the waitress? She doesn't cook...giant know you can't tip the other people who worked on your order since you don't see them, and who said the that goes on the paper doesn't get divided up.You can afford peapod, but the $5 it's just over the top.[/quote]
