What's an acceptable tip for a driver who delivers a $20 pizza?
A TikTok video purporting to show a DoorDash delivery driver in Texas swearing at a customer over the $5 tip she gave him has gone viral, sparking fresh online debate over tipping culture in the U.S.
"I just want to say it's a nice house for a $5 tip," the driver can be heard saying as he walks away from a home in the door camera video posted to TikTok earlier this week by a user under the name Lacey Purciful.
"You're welcome!" the resident says, appearing surprised by the remark. "F*** you," the driver responds before walking away.
A spokesperson for DoorDash said a delivery driver had been removed from their platform in connection with the incident.
If you're not opposed to tipping in general, I'd recommend the "mini-tip" for takeout orders. I just add a buck or two for restaurant takeout orders. Not franchise fast food takeout, I mean actual restaurants. Fast food, no tip, sorry it's not part of the deal.
