<p>Why not view it as a continuum rather than black and white?</p>
<p>Another poster said that they will tip 15% for delivery, and 20% for service.</p>
<p>I would be thrilled to get an average of 5%</p>
<p>Obviously I am biased, but I really don’t see how a server’s job is worth such a large tip anyway. Servers probably average (bad shifts included) $20 an hour at the restaurant where I work. That’s for running food back and forth to people while smiling (and often, not smiling). Doesn’t seem many orders of magnitude more difficult than what I do.</p>
