If you go to a bar enough, you'll get known as a regular regardless of how you tip. They'll learn what you drink, eat, etc. Your tipping habbits won't make a huge difference. Used to work in the industry and we really didn't think of people as "supporters of the industry" or go above and beyond for nice tippers. If you come into the bar and drink, you get served like everyone else.

It's kind of a no-brainer that if you give people more money they will "like" you lmao. Post is a joke.

This is stupid. Not everyone knows or care about the physics/chemistry related to soda fizz. Not exactly a requirement to be a productive, insightful, and intelligent person. They probably heard this trick from someone, it made sense at their level, and they figured they can preserve their soda at the relative cost of absolutely nothing.

I’m an engineer with a masters degree. My relatives are very blue collar. I don’t expect them to know a lot do things that I do. I don’t know a lot of things they know. No sense in looking down on someone because they have a set a knowledge different than yours, and that you may not value as much.

As a Jr high dropout I ended up 8+ years of working full time (never in service industry) to put myself thru community college (usually full time course load) to be able to transfer to a 4-yr.

So hard empirical disagree with ya fella. You clearly just like to avoid agency with your problems.

Sorry Aspirin = Salicylic acid and is dissolvable by shampoo. Neutrogena makes a shampoo with SA at 3% and I believe 6%

all you do is bitch and give excuses when you’re called out

Is flirting and hitting on someone two different things?

Stop talking shit to people about other people behind their back. If you talk shit about someone behind their back EVERYONE knows you will talk shit about them behind their back. That is a terrible way to start a career.

Now that’s a lie.

Coal tar is what finally did it for me in my 30s. I thought my hair would never stop snowing.

And if they’re not local, phone calls and zoom calls can be a lifeline to help them continue to feel connected.

If you’re too unstable to avoid messing with people’s food, you’re too unstable to work in customer service

Can't really work a normal job while going to school full time...

Yeah I usually only order takeout if I can eat at least twice too. Still tip tho.

They aren't your friends. You might think so, but they don't.

You don't know people's situations - don't gatekeep and say poorer people can't treat themselves once in a while. I recently bought a take out that cost me $14 including delivery. The food was enough to last me two dinners.

Edit to add: Tipping is for good/efficient delivery service. I don't tip if the driver ignores my delivery instructions and wakes up my neighbour and their kids instead of actually going to my door because they cba to read instructions/use a flight of stairs.

I’ve also got jobs based on relationships I made while volunteering, so it can be a win-win-win.

My point is that one who may be considered a creep must accept rejection and move on; not stalk or harass.

Yup. I had a few run-ins with pre-disgruntled delivery drivers who messed with my food years ago. First step was to report the driver. Second was to stop using the service. Then I realized that almost all delivery services are taking advantage of the drivers and I stopped ordering delivery altogether.

Then again, I can make better food faster for cheaper, so unless it’s a catering situation, I’m not going to be ordering food delivered anymore anyway, now that I’ve broken the habit.
