    years ago, I was in an upmarket restaurant in London with a group of guys. One of them, quite a wealthy guy called over a young lad who was waiting tables and said to him "you look after us well tonight and I will give you a great tip"…..the young lad worked his socks off all night and when we were leaving yer man threw a handful of coins on the table and said to the waiter…."The best tip I can give you is to get all your riding done before you turn 40" !!!

    I take your word about all that happening. What part of that is the waiter's fault?

    Why reward the waiter for a big main course or not reward them for a smaller main course?

    Went out for Tacos recently and my daughter said she had been to the restaurant in May - In May the portion was 3 tacos, we got 2 for the same price.
    Not the waiting staff's issue - but they have just lost customers

    Nope, I really don't. There is no other job where I could earn as much combined as this one within the time frame. I have another business as well which is busier in winter so it suits nicely.

    Every job has its annoying bits and tipping isn't about to be abolished any time soon. I do very well out of it.

    Giving money to an app and not knowing where the money goes is just helping perpuate this codology.

    Well I get these emails direct from Dominos after I've had a delivery so I'm sure it's legit

    Thanks to TiPJAR, you can show your driver your pizza-ppreciation with a tip that goes 100% directly to them. It's easy, it’s safe and they can access their tips straight away!

    That seems to imply the driver is receiving the money individually but I was wondering if anyone knew for sure
