I’m driving to work at 6am, I don’t want to allocate any morning minutes to coffee pick up. Plus, have you ever carried 10 coffees? It’s a pain in the ass. Also, this isn’t always the first coffee of the day. Sometimes it’s a mid-day treat. We work 12 hours.

but also do you consider the driver that has to carry your 10 coffees? bc i’ve gotten deliveries where i was juggling 13 coffees for an order (almost spilled one ngl) to only get tipped $2

2 dollar tip for even 2 coffees from Starbucks is NOT OK. !!! Never would i tip an Uber eats/Dooddash driver less than $5. But 13 coffees = if each person tipped AROUND $1.50, driver could easily make about $19 - $22 for that 1 delivery..

If ppl can't afford it, they shouldnt order. 🤷‍♀️

If I EVER order coffee from work for multiple ppl - EVERY PERSON is chipping in for a tip...or they don't oder.

I personally never delivered food before but I DID waitress for many years in my 20s.... so have always been a OVER TIPPER because of that.

Probably unpopular opinion, LoL but - Every American should HAVE to work a job in food service or customer service w tips.... for at least a year growing up. Only THEN should u be APPROVED to go out to eat OR order delivery. 😂 That's the only way everyone would truly understand JUST how hard ppl in the industry work (and the bullshit!t they endure.)
