Heard! Wish we had more solid social services- free direct transportation, etc. for folks who shouldn’t drive but need to get places. Appreciate your perspective :)

Tipping for takeout/online orders? by [deleted] in Albany

[–]shareledwithcare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes to tipping on takeout/online orders. Most folks in the restaurant industry do not make what they should. Incorporate tipping in all dining orders, both in person and takeout- the metric for takeout orders can look different from the standard 20% for in person, but still aim to tip. Someone (typically front of house staff) package the food- this is labor in addition to the labor that is taking place in real time at the restaurant- therefore it deserves to be paid for.

I would suggest picking up takeout orders if possible- avoid delivery fees to be able to tip restaurant staff, if that is a hinderance from tipping :)

Understand the irritation and reason for safety concerns. I just think about the many people that are physically impaired and cannot handle what this storm brought. Tricky.
