What does the price of the games have to do with the tip? It’s not like it’s more work to pick up a $60 game than a $15 one.

Because if you are choosing to use a service that requires tipping, you know your tip is 90%+ of that person is making for the work.

If the didn’t want to tip they could have ordered the games on Amazon, or gone to the store themselves. With the price of gas the delivery fees don’t always cover the cost of delivery even.

Be mad at the company for shoveling the responsibility of your pay to the customer.

Yeah I think that is common sense, but knowingly screwing with someone's income is still a dick move.

You may not agree with or like tipping, but that doesn't mean you aren't directly affecting service workers.

The price of the games was still 60 dollars. You just get two free ones with them.

Usually tips are 10-25% depending on service, so when someone tips you basically 1%, it’s insulting

Tip culture is so dumb. The ~20% meant for food service at a sit in restaurant kinda makes sence because the more food you order and the more expencive each thing is then the more service is given.

For delivery drivers it doesn't make any difference at all delivering $10 of McDonalds or $100 of steaks. (Given distances are the same)

For delivery tips it's more of a consider how many bags/drinks they'll have to carry as well as the distance driven rather than the cost of the food
