So the responsibility falls on the customer to ensure a company's employee is adequately compensated?

Not my job. Cool that you think that stupid shite though.

Do I tip? Not going to say. Maybe I do, maybe I don't.

I'll let you think what you want, and I hope you think I care.

I don't care, so don't even worry yourself enough to post that. I've come to the realization that there are cheap and trashy people galore. In fact, they're the majority unfortunately (so you're in (not good) company).

What I haven't yet grasped, is why so many think that this behavior is a virtue, so much so that they openly wallow in it and expect others to laud them when they post about it. That, I happen to find odd.

There was only one assumption there, and it's likely to be true based on your posting history on this topic.

No, your choice is to reward people for hard work regardless of what they get paid by their employer, that’s the point of a tip.

Despite what this board thinks, being low IQ trailer trash isn’t a good look.

As Mo Jeaux said, the fact they openly brag about their trashiness is the real oddity.

For $1000, it can't be much of a move. $20-$50 each would be appropriate.

I have paid the driver $100.00 in most cases. My moves were $5000-$16,000 in the past though.

No. That's not the point of a tip. Research it.

When's the last time you tipped at a fast food place. Or are you one of the many liars on here that hasn't eaten fast food in 20 years?

So, did you tip the last time you were at McDonalds when you got your food hot and fast? Did you drop a few bucks on the counter for their hard work? No, you didn't.

I'm on a 10 hour drive. I'm out of weed. I'll debate this stupid shite all day cause I'm in a shitty mood.

I don't care if I agree 100%, I'm going to argue and make points you can't defend.

So you tip basically everyone that provides any type of service to you?

I agree with this. McDonald employees aren’t nearly as compensated as movers and yet we don’t feel the need to tip them. This is a society thing not logic thing

You should just get yourself some more pot. It's obvious that you're a shithead without it.

Be sure to tip your dealer though.

Read RECENT reviews when doing your research. The total score may be 4* or whatever but recent reviews may show the company has gone to crap.

I can’t stress how important this is. We got hosed based on old reviews and won’t make that mistake again.

I thought we were going to discuss this further.

You never answered my question. Did you tip at McDonalds?

And yeah, weed would be nice but it might make this trip seem longer. Could backfire.

I don't tip my guy. He sells it for a price, and I pay that price.

See how simple that is? Crazy!!!
