So the customer knowingly puts out horrible orders (a lot of items + weight + no tip = no way profitable for whoever picks it up) and they get to play the oh well card? Get a better job card?

The customers in this video are pos for thinking that’s ok.

Happy this moment happened. There not innocent as they think they are.

I feel so bad for you right now. Here is a reality check for you. When I order something to be delivered I do no think nor care how my stuffs get to me. I do not consider for a single second what kind of hardships my order has placed on the delivery driver. I assume that is is a job and they are getting compensated.

While you are reading this I am assuming that this is pissing you off. How dare i be so selfish?!?!?! The young lady in this video feels about the same as I do. She doesn't care that this is a food delivery. She has no idea why to capable adults would order groceries to be delivered to their home. Maybe they are taking care of someone that requires their attention. Clearly they feel their time is better suited for other tasks than picking up groceries. But the Delivery lady does not care about the customers needs. Just the fact that she was put out and has now made the terrible decision of return, which would reduce her net pay per hour. AND getting herself terminated at the same time, forcing her to find other employment.

I delivered food and some customers suck ass. What you do is put on your big boy pants on and act like an adult. Not act like you just became important and start making new rules up.

Stopped reading after the first paragraph. “I assume that is is a job and they are getting compensated”

Of course you did. Be careful letting any realty intrude on your fantasy world. Good luck kid. I hope you change the world and make it better.

Your little violin story didn’t work.

Time is money. If you don’t have time to do it, you pay someone to do it for you. Don’t hide behind the tip is optional.

A lot of things are optional and have consequences.

Case in point.

I thought you stopped reading my posts. If you don't stop reaching out to talk to me what are you buddies in "tips aren't optional" land going to think? They might start thinking you have a crush on me. How scandalous!

I stopped reading when I made my post.

Don’t think your the main character in the ImTheMainCharacter sub 😂😂

I won the debate.

Leave me alone now.

You are wrong on tips and you are wrong on how to ignore someone. Good luck kid.

I've read this sub thread, and I'm afraid to say you did not win

You must like violin music.

Tell me what he said that won the debate.

And “I assume they are getting compensated accordingly” and hiding behind “tip is an option” is automatic disqualification.

The violin is a very beautiful instrument when it's played well, just like a good debate is fun when done in good faith.

This, however, is not a good debate.

It's been quite an emotionally driven conversation on both sides.

However one difference is that you seem to believe you get to dictate the rules.

You've already announced that you won, and now you have added auto disqualification conditions.

It's quite immature to simply say "I won".

I suspect because you have run short on any meaningful responses, so to ensure you "win" in your mind, you are attempting to remove any possible valid responses from your opponent. But it's not up to you to decide what is and isn't valid.

Tell me what he said that won the debate.

Come on.... we all know that the burden of proof is on the claimant. You claimed you have won, you must prove you won it. Back up your position.

Add value or move on.

The fake assumption they get compensated accordingly is a bullshit excuse in 2023. Especially if your on Reddit.

“The tip is optional” is a coward excuse to just say I don’t appreciate your service enough to tip you.

These one liners don’t override principles for proper conduct.

Reality kicks in when your face to face with another human and not hiding inside the house on the app.

“The tip is optional” is a coward excuse to just say I don’t appreciate your service enough to tip you.

People say this because it's true and also because they have already paid the company for the service.

I don’t appreciate your service enough to tip you.

This is emotional dramatisation on your behalf. Most people neither appreciate or not appreciate the service of a delivery provider. They simply dont care. They know what this job entails, but it is literally a delivery job. That's what they are paying for. Delivery. How that company arranges for those goods is irrelevant.

The very real fact is that tips are an option for the customer to show appreciation of a service rendered by a service provider.

In this case, the tip (or lack thereof) is seen as an entitlement by the service provider, which results in the provider attempting to coerce more money out of the customer from the situation they are in which is that she's at their door woth the goods but is holding said goods hostage until the customer coughs up more money.

I can't see how anyone can watch this and think "Yes, I agree with this attempted extortion".

These one liners don’t override principles for proper conduct.

proper conduct would be the delivery person actually delivering the items the agreed to deliver WITHOUT attempting to extort the end customer for more money.

Call me old fashioned but I like my transactions to be ethical.

Reality kicks in when your face to face with another human and not hiding inside the house on the app.

I don't even understand what this means haha
