Okay, I don't know about ya'll but down
here, delivery people don't carry change,
just cash. So I just ordered some
fetuchinni. The guy came to the door.
My total was $10.52, so I gave him a $20.
He gave me $9 dollars back, and I gave
him a three dollar tip. So I closed the
door ,and I thought that he got a $3.48
tip. And that is only b/c they don't
give coins back. I know it is not a lot,
but I order out almost everyday 2 times a
day, so all of that little change adds up.
Now I guess, i'll just have to go back
to my no tip policy. Ohh and get this,
after he gave me my nine dollars, he make
a fake ass turn like he was walking away,
but kept his eyes on my hand. This
health question, thought he was clever.
The next time he comes I going to have a
big suprise for him.

Yeah but if you think about it, the gas
the spend going to deliver your food adds
up too lol. Not just some change. So it
actually gets costly for them. I usually
tip depending on the price. One time I
only gave a $2 tip cuz it took them 1 hour
to deliver a pizza and the pizza was $18!!
I was like "ghetto people!"

Lol I forget, here most things already
include service charge. I only leave a
tip if the meal was something special or
the service was amazing.

thinking how can they have cash but no
change lol cash is change - same thing -

Yea, it was good. That is why I order it
like everyday. And yea, it could cost
them nikki. But down here delivery
drivers get paid double and sometimes
triple what the people that work in the
store make. Plus they get reimbursed for
mileage, have gas gas allotment, and the
company pays their car insurance. Hell,
not only do they make more than me, but
they get benefits on top of it.

Lol oh nevermind forget the tip! I dont
think they get all that out here! Well I
wouldnt know ive never been a delivery
person lol. All I know is when I see they
are hiring it says "must have valid
drivers licence and insurance" so I dont
think they cover insurance lol

Oh I knew it was called cash.... Destiny
said the delivery guys don't carry change,
just cash, and I thought you were talking
about change, but you were talking about
cash! Lol! Change is a subset of cash
here. Coins are cash too, just bills are
not change (usually).

Hehe change is what we get when we pay
with cash. Like if I spend £15 and give a
£20 note i'll get a £5 note change.
It's dialect as opposed to language isn't
it

Yeah we use it that way too, just when you
talk about change in general or carrying
change then you usually mean coins. Like
if I said do you have change for a ten,
that would mean bills, but if I said do
you have change, that would mean coins.
