Chain restaurant fees are getting absurd

ArtVandelay@lemmy.world to Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world – 54 points –

I got this fun fee after trying to order takeout from Buffalo Wild Wings (yes I'm naming and shaming). How exactly does adding a dollar help you operate takeout? It's literally less work than waiting on a table. This is nothing more than a shameful cash grab to pad profits.

I cancelled my order and got local street tacos instead.

Tiping culture has gotten wildly out of hand

I hate when restaurants force me to tipe

Over COVID I tipped 20-25% times we're tough for everybody and service workers kept it all going. But in other words back to normal I've made a conscious effort to put it back in the 15 to 20 range.

And everyone wants a tip, even just picking up food you're asked to tip.
