    The Sysco truck has me rolling. That's almost definitely what they do, too. I'm a purchasing agent at a high end resort with multiple restaurants on property. I am the one in charge of ordering the food for these restaurants. Almost everything comes frozen from Sysco or US Foods. Basically all the kitchen staff has to do is put it all together. That doesn't mean that it doesn't taste amazing, because it does, but that pasta came in a huge bag of frozen pasta, that sauce is made with frozen sun dried tomatoes, and that bread on the side was frozen at the beginning of the day.

      It's not even a food safety issue. You're not legally liable for food brought in by a third party from outside the restaurant unless you as the restaurant then take that food and handle it and further prepare it somehow. *THAT* is against health regs pretty much everywhere. Bringing in a can of coke zero is not.

    In my experience as someone who's worked a fair bit of food service, 99% of the time policies like "no outside food" and the like are just fucking shortsighted idiot rules made up by moronic owners who stumbled into owning a business merely due to having wealth and then proceed to basically just cause problems. Then cashiers and waiters just get forced to enforce those rules becasue they'll get passive aggressively reminded of the rules if they let things slide. Shit is rampant in the industry I stg.

    Tipping on Takeout? Tipping on FRONT-DESK ORDERING? I thought everybody ignored those. No wonder people have been writing articles about tipping fatigue. People don't stand up and say that's stupid! We came to a consensus as a NA society that only 4 sectors got tips: wait staff, drivers/parkers, barbers, and cleaners. Going beyond that is only asking for trouble.

      The ideal solution would be for companies to just, y'know, pay their workers. Doordash is my main gig and an easy 60% of my income is from customer tips, not being paid by the actual company contracting my work. I have never and will never beg anyone for a tip, whether over the phone or in person, but I always appreciate it when they are given. Pro tip: Always tip in cash if possible, since Doordash is known to play fucky-wucky with tips and pockets a lot of the extra money themselves, or hands it off to sweeten bad orders for other drivers. If you hand your driver a cash tip, it's theirs and [depending on how civics-minded they are or are not] they might not even report it on their taxes. [pay your taxes, kids. it would certainly be a shame if someone came away from this comment thinking that it's cool to not pay taxes. that's the last thing I would ever want.]

    Tipping is not a thing in my country, you tip a couple of dollars in rare occasions when you feel like it or to round off a bill. I understand that tipping in north america is basically required because they don't pay waiters but it sounds like tipping anyone is just a scam, they are going to stop paying every minim wage worker altogether and have them rely on tips.

      the argument against not tipping is that "you are paying servers less" but the law in america is that tipped jobs will still get paid minimum wage if the tips aren't enough. so if you don't tip, you (in some way) contribute to someone getting paid minimum wage which is unlivable in many states
      that being said, i only tip at sit-down restaurants, everywhere else can go screw themselves. if people have issues with me not tipping they should ask their bosses why they're getting paid minimum wage instead of being mad at me!

So on top of tip culture being ridiculous the stores are doing less for and expecting "gifted" money.
