Is this commonplace? I've never heard of people not tipping on Sundays.
In undergrad we'd always give our delivery guy a beer and a binger.
Where I live, it is. In fact, pretty much everybody who worked on Sunday only worked on Sunday because the higher ups get to choose their own schedules, and they obviously won't work on a day that gets them no money. Those lower on the food chain had no other choice.
I've actually lost money working on Sundays, because I was actually spending more gas than I was getting paid. When it comes to Pizza Delivery, only work Fridays and Saturdays if you can.
That's shit man... that's real shit.
I'd be one pissed off son of a bitch. Who the hell thinks that just because it's sunday they don't have to tip? What is it about Sunday? The only thing I can think Sunday represents is Football and Church... and neither sound like something that would endorse "not tipping on Sunday". Where do you live so I know not to go there, because people who even think that way would drive me nuts.
I don't know, tipping is one thing that really gets under my skin. Now I'm someone who will tip when deserved, if you get a bad tip from me, you really screwed up at your job. Oh and if I don't leave a tip, you screwed up so bad I had to talk to your manager to bring awareness to the issue. But for someone doing their job, I'll tip, and I'll tip well.
I remember when I was in highschool my friends and I would go out and eat, and if the waitress screwed up any little thing (didn't matter if it was completely accidental, oh no she didn't bring the catsup even though the entire place was packed to the brim). They'd go and tip these people in the most dickish ways...
like putting a small handful of coins in a cup, putting the place mat over it, flip it and slide the place mat out. This way the waitress would have to pour water all over the place just to pick up the damn thing... this steamed me to NO END. It's like, shit mother fucker, I come here frequently, after the 3rd time you did this it's no surprise they fuck your shit up, cause they know they're going to have to deal with it anyways... so why not make the time shitty for you as well!
Ugh..
I actually have friends I refuse to eat with out. I was just recently out with a couple friends, and I wouldn't order anything. They were all like "what you ain't hungry?" And I'd just say, "yep." And go on with the night, before you knew it they were up to their usual bullheaded shit... and I would laugh because I could just see it in the kitchen... you know they were fucking with the food.
It's cliche, but really, don't fuck with your waitress, they handle your fucking food! I worked in restaurants, from shitty Denny's to nice family ran restaurants. We are NOT afraid to do it. Don't matter the place, shit I had friends (the dicks they are) who'd randomly put things in the burgers at McDonalds... pubic hair, snot, toe nails, even semen! And they'd do it at random just for a laugh... ew.
Those are some killer stories, sounds like being with you is reliving the Clerks movie, everyday, and im not saying that as a bad thing...
