<p>Hey guys, a PSA:</p>
<p>I work at the counter at a cafe/deli. The drivers and servers make LOTS of tips. </p>
<p>however, lots of people see carry out as a way to make an expensive order and not tip. If the order’s over $50, chances are less than 5% I will see any tip at all. I usually get the most tips on orders $20-30. I probably average about $2 in tips an hour, on top of my minimum wage.</p>
<p>Cashiers <em>love</em> getting tips. We are the ones who answer the phones (most of the time) as well as prepare food for the drivers (often). </p>
<p>I feel like tipping the cashier for carry out isn’t on a lot of people’s radar. I’d just like to say that tipping even one dollar will always make us cashier workers happy. We’re service people too!</p>
