People don't tip and wonder why it takes so long to get their food and it's not steaming hot. If you can't tip maybe you shouldn't be ordering expensive food from downtown restaurants where you know its busy, no parking, long wait times. A few times someone else had already picked it up - which happens with UberEats a little too often.

I've been doing Uber Eats for a year in June, and it has helped us so much. I have a professional background, but due to health complications, I have to do work that allows me the freedom to stop and go as needed to respect my body's needs. We have 3 young boys, and it helps a LOT in keeping them fed and clothed. It's so upsetting that people pre-judge delivery persons so often. Many of us are either former or current professionals or otherwise employed persons who just need the extra to get by. I don't think people realize the tips are our bread and butter. All we get from Uber is the delivery fee. That's it. So if the delivery fee is 99 cents, and the customer doesn't tip, we are coming out of pocket to provide them service. I don't know anyone who would go miles out of their way to pick up and drop off food for a complete stranger for 99 cents (unless they were doing charity work), lol

As someone who uses DoorDash to get myself food far more than I deliver, it baffles me why people do not tip well or do what they did to your husband! Like, let’s be for real, you’re more than likely being lazy and don’t want to go get the food yourself, and this driver is going to get it for you so you can sit your behind at home. Like the math ain’t mathing. 🤨 Yes, tipping culture is getting out of hand, but the gig drivers deserve it! From a driver’s perspective, what’s a good amount to tip your drivers? I usually take what the “suggested tip” amount is and add a dollar, except I pay more for grocery deliveries. Is that fair, or what do y’all suggest? I feel like that’s way more than most people seem to tip, but I want to make sure that’s a good way to go about it. lol. Thanks, Toya, for another great video!! ❤

Thank you for understanding! ☺️ As far as the suggested tip, it can work but not in all cases. The main factors drivers look at is the mileage they have to drive and how much work the order entails. I usually tip 20% but I adjust where I need to. A suggested tip for a small order may only be 2 or 3 dollars so I increase it to a flat 5 or more especially if it's a bit of a drive. On the other hand, time consuming deliveries like groceries can be a pain. I don't hesitate to give a $25 dollar tip for their troubles especially if I order heavy items. If I can afford to use the service, I tip very well

I think its bogus how these companies (uberests) raised their fees and lowered the preset tip amounts in an attempt to mask the fee increase

Also, when you are about to pull into a parking space and there is a rogue cart in the way because someone was too lazy to put it where it is supposed to go. Then other people seem to follow along and leave their carts anywhere because they see that others have done it. 😒

Hey Toya, agree with your analysis. I also think that companies are almost grooming people not to tip. There are definitely more protocols the companies can put in place to encourage customers to tip.

I work a FT 9-5 but also deliver for Spark and have seen orders post for an hour without anyone picking it up due to low pay far distance for pickup and no tip. The delivery fee doubled from $6.50 to $12.50 still no one would pick it up. I wish you could filter by distance or store location like Amazon Flex bc driving 10+ miles for pickup + another 5-10 for delivery for $6.50 don't make sense. When there is a Walmart less than a mile from you and get penalized for not accepting.

While I empathize for people who need delivery services and cannot tip there are usually programs they can use instead , IE like food banks or meals on wheels

Hi Toya, Great Video Thanks! You’re so right about everything I have worked with the public for over 43 years I retired almost 5 years ago from working the same job for over 35 years. I do gig work to offset my pension due to the cost of everything being so high. I truly enjoy it 😊 especially the catering deliveries. Have a Great day: )

I was with someone that left a message for the driver to go to his KZitem page, memorize a verse, and rap it into his doorbell for an extra tip. When the message was shown to me, I thought it was the dumbest 💩 I heard. 🤦🏼♂️

If someone messages me to deliver to a diff spot than where they initially put in the app, i pretend like i did not get the message. 🤣The creator will take care of the customer who tip baited. - happened to me. Tipping is not a requirement but it iz appreciated.
