I don't understand tipping delivery drivers percentage of the goods. If they aren't involved in the restaurant making the food, why should I tip percentage of the tab. Should really be based on distance and amount of stuff delivered. I've started just opting to punch in dollar amounts that feel right to me.
I think it comes from the thinking that ordering more expensive food means you must have higher income to afford that, so you can also afford a higher tip.
That's what I do with my drivers. Whether it's 20 bucks or 11 or 15 I just do $5 if they're cool with me and that's usually the case
