    Its effectively paying protection money.

    Would be a shame if your order came in an hour late. You know, a few bucks would make Vinny here a lot happier. The happier Vinny is, the less likely something bad happens to your order.

      Shrug, I tip decently. But I don’t mind free food. As someone who gets delivery 1-3 times a week. I get 1 or 2 free meals a month, because they take “side” trips. (the tracking programs they use are great!)

      They often start out with “all we can offer 5 dollars off your next meal”… And I counter with “I had to throw the food out, I’m happy to send you screenshots of their route going 15-30 minutes out of the way”…
