That's complete and utter bullshit. There's no doubt a positive reinforcement of being drunk, and likewise if you get overly intoxicated and physically ill on one type of liquor you may not be able to get past the memory of the smell and correlating it with puking.

However it's like saying:

>no one actually likes the taste of coffee or tea, their brain just likes the caffeine
>no one actually likes the taste of spicy food, just the cardiovascular effects of capsicum
>no one actually likes anything ever because it boils down to how a certain thing affects production of certain chemicals in the brain.

Pick one pleb.

I'm at work, I'm doing things, I can grab a bite-size piece and continue what I'm doing without having to put down an entire slice.

Fuck you.

>tipping is not meant to pay someone's wages, it's meant to be a showing of gratitude for good service.
Maybe when it was a nascent gesture of genuine gratitude. However, for better or worse (definitely for worse), it has become ingrained as an informal mandatory tariff for service - regardless of the quality.

How is you stiffing a 17 year old pizza delivery boy going to change the fact that national chains like Dominos and Pizzahut advertise their drivers' hourly wage as $15/hr because of tips?

Your sense of entitlement to be exempt from social norms is far more insulting than tipping.

>Yes, tipping may be pretty old, but EXPECTED tipping is only a few decades old.
>There's a reason why old people give shitty tips. It's not because they're stingy, it's because in their time, TIPS WEREN'T FUCKING EXPECTED YOU ENTITLED CUNTS!
Okay, so then why are there so many scenes in film noir movies and fucking childrens cartoons from the 1930s and 1940s where a bellhop has carried a patron's bags to their room and extended a hand to receive a tip?

>Oh, boo fucking hoo. They're soooooo brave for fucking driving.
In the United States, delivering food is one of the most dangerous jobs behind stuff like lgging and commercial fishing. Not only are you constantly on the road and subjected to more road hazards, but you're an established target for criminals because they know you have money on you.

That's why I carried a pistol in my car while I was delivering.

10% is a minimum if you were dining alone or with a party of 3-5.

Even eldery Jews will dole out 10% for mediocre service.

I know OP is trolling, but I'm drunk and bored as shit and need a good argument.

Pretty much the same situation you're in, expect I work at a mom and pop. The owners 'work' but only for brief periods of time, and any chance they get to stop working and eat (husband) or talk to some customer (wife) - they fucking fly off.

I don't know if y'all have a call center, I know the pizza hut nextdoor to us does (am friends with most of the people who work there, have been in each other's stores). We have three phones in the back of our store.

We're primarily a dine-in/take out place. We deliver, but delivery orders are last on the priority list. Regardless of me telling people it's going to take about an hour and half for delivery, they'll still order it.

People ask for the dumbest shit ever on the phone. How the fuck does asking how many slices a large is cut up into versus a medium help you figure out how much pizza you need? I say the same thing every time someone asks:

>ALL of our pizzas are cut into eight slices

Some fucks use stupid terms for our sizes:

>calling our small a 'personal' pizza, even though it's as big as Pizza Hut's medium
>just blindly asking for a 'giant' or 'family' size pizza

The only redeeming thing is that the owner's wife will fucking tear people apart on the phones. She's banned two people from ordering because they stiffed me on a delivery and were dicks about it afterwards. We basically have permission to tell people:

>No, we can't get the delivery out there any faster, call pizza hut, they're right next door, would you like their phone number?

The thing that annoys me the most are the people who think cheese is somehow a distinct topping that has to be mentioned to get their pizza right.

I shit you not, I took a call yesterday:

>I'd like a large cheese and pepperoni pizza with pepperoni and cheese on half of it and the other half just plain cheese, no pepperoni

We write our order's down, and this is what I wrote down:

>lg - 1/2pep

We're not going to leave cheese off because you didn't say it.
