They are even on FM now. They took over one of my favorite alternative rock stations 92.3.

You tip gas station attendants?

That’s some high roller ish right there.

De-ice the turbines.

No less than $5 per order, more based on location and honestly, how well I’m doing at the moment. The more I have, the more I tip. But never less than $5.

Forgive my ignorance but why would a wind turbine have a diesel generator attached and who fills it if it does lol

That sounds very generous - I’m sure they appreciated it!

This sounds sensible- thanks

It’s a service job and I’m fortunate in that I can spare the money to tip when people provide me with a service. It’s also a low-paid and thankless job, so sparing a small tip can bring someone a lot of joy.

Then they should change jobs?

Discuss!

Thank you, finally someone gets it!

Bingo.

Dude. Anything over $5 made me so freaking happy when I was delivering.

It’s a fluffer’s dozen.

Drivers don’t expect a percentage of your food bill. They don’t care what you’re ordering. They want money to cover their gas and make it worth their time.

If they’re picking up drinks, especially hot drinks, add a little extra. Some restaurants make them prepare the drinks if the machine is in the lobby, and drinks can make the physical delivery part more difficult. If you see they got to the restaurant right away and the restaurant is slow and making them wait, add a little extra. They’re missing out on orders waiting for your food.

Keep in mind that most drivers get a base pay of $2.75 per order.

But people aren’t paid fair wages, so I try to be generous when and where I’m able to.

I always try to be generous, so this insight is helpful. Appreciate it.

Everytime I turn on that station they make it sound like a some kind of war is going on, and everyone in the current government is an idiot and just allowing it to happen. I hate it.

Thanks for the insight, appreciate it

Tipping just needs to be illegal. This is getting out of control. Pay people a fair wage.

I don’t do percentages for delivery. The driver has to drive the same distance and carry the same bag of food regardless of whether it’s a $100 sushi order or a $10 chicken sandwich. If the order is small and relatively close, I generally tip $5. If it’s bigger or further, I generally tip $10. If it’s bad weather, I will go higher.

Always at least 20% dining in a restaurant, we don't get a lot of takeout, but I do order Whole Foods from Amazon, so I tip above what the delivery charge is. Usually 15-20%, although during the holidays, especially right before Thanksgiving, I tipped A LOT...but this service kept me from having a nervous breakdown shopping, so it was worth every damn penny.

I don't think I can upvote this enough

That’s where the Wendy’s right?

Not an intersection per say. But the Somerville circle should be razed

For years, it was the 3 / 46 merge both directions - got into accidents both east- and west- bound. Neither my fault. They have since corrected, but I moved and do not need to use it.
