If your food order is $30 and you're only tipping $2, that's not a pandemic-worthy tip. The delivery drivers are taking a risk with public interaction during a health crisis, and they deserve better.
There is no question, things are going to be different for the time being with COVID-19 affecting how we eat out and spend time at restaurants. Have you thought about leaving a big tip?
Most of us don't live buildings with a doorman so we can skip that, but we should be tipping landlords, delivery drivers, and handymen this holiday season. How much? And how do we get the tip into the hands of the trash collector without getting run over?
I took my daughters to a fast-casual food court the other day and each restaurant had an iPad cash register, which meant that I spent 12 to 20 percent more than I would have with other payment terminals. It's too hard to say no to the tip!
If you're going to be traveling and taking that dream vacation over the next few months, no doubt a question will come up again and again: Whom and how much should I tip?
