Like if there's a huge order going to what you clearly know is a single person living alone, how often (if at all) are you internally judging them?

I’ve done Uber Eats.

Generally the only thing I ever judged people on is getting shafted on a tip when I know their house was worth over a million dollars.

Thank god we don't have a tipping culture.

Thank god we don’t have a law that allows some lines of work to basically be unpaid, which forces tipping.

That’s the thing us Europeans have to remember. People who work for tips actually need tips or they make no money.

It’s an incredibly evil and dumb system. But a foreigner huffing about it while visiting the US isn’t going to change the system. Tip.

Meanwhile, Canada has no minimum wage exemption, and you still are asked to tip on everything.

Yes tipping in Canada is weird, agreed. But from the time I lived in Toronto I didn’t feel it was as mad as the US is nowadays.

I’d gladly have a minimum hourly wage from Uber while I’m online instead.

It seems its always the rich folks who consistently dont tip.

Well they didn't get rich by giving it away. 😅
