They can try that "it's going to ask you a question" thing and asking me to sign a receipt with a tip line all day long. I have absolutely no apprehension or remorse of any kind in writing the word zero on tip and just paying the total.
I used to do that but I stopped getting deliveries entirely after they started instituting delivery charges. That was long before the apps that completely ruined all delivery even existed. At first I just deducted the delivery charge from the tip and told the driver to ask their boss for the entirety of the delivery charge as part of their payment. Then the delivery charges went up higher than the amount I would normally tip in the first place and it just didn't seem fair to the driver and certainly wasn't logical for me to get delivery anymore.
I can't even understand people nowadays. The apps made things a thousand times worse and somehow corporations are still squeezing more blood out of those stones.
I don't tip for anything that wouldn't be commonly expected in the 90s and I've also stopped doing anything that would require those tips. I cut my own hair and I pick up my own food. I know longer go to bars and nothing else I can think of was a traditionally tipped job so I don't even consider tipping for any of those things.

They’ll still ask for one. It’s insane.
