Re: Tipping delivery drivers?

Exactly that are you doing, assuming a delivery guy is payed by hours. Some employer is looking for sombody for delivering pizzas at saturdays, he knows a d guy can make Sfr. 15.- an hour tip. Do you think the employee does not adjust the salary?
It works the same with waiters. And why should i for an already expensive coffee give tip?
If you are 4 people having dinner somwhere in a well known restaurant spending 600.- how much tip would you give if the service and meals were extraordinary, or how much if you had some complaints?

Same with a lunch somewhere casual which is Sfr.50.- per person?

But cant you expect to get the best service anyway and pay what it is written on the price list?
i don't think the employee adjust the salary when it is -10 degree outside or it is snowing, and again it is called "service" and u r free to tip or not

in restaurants i tip regarding the service i recieve, and i don't calculate the tip regarding the bill, we r not in the US where u need to add 15 to 20% tip

i always hope to get the best service, but if the service is good, i will give a good tip and encourage them to continue doing it.
if everybody follows your logic and nobody tips, we would all end up with grumpy waiters/waitresses and not get a good service!!!
