Kinda shitty that Dominos has it set up so that tip is calculated on top of the delivery and service fees. Tipping on the value of food, I understand. Tipping on the cost of those other fees is double dipping and bad faith in my opinion.
Seriously, "y'all charged me a service fee to deliver my food? Cool! Let me tip you for that!"
Having done time in the service industry, I have no problem tipping where it's warranted, but you're tipping the Dominos corporation for their fuckery at that point, not the driver
Dominoes has their own cars tho so the delivery fee is in theory for car wear
Why does your dominoes deliver by car? Seems like an incredibly expensive and environmentally unsound way of delivering pizza? Here they just use bikes like basically every other delivery place.
I wish we could ride bikes but here in the US there is absolutely no infrastructure for it. The closest Domino's to me is 3 miles away. Riding a bike there would be extremely scary.
Even if you take Google's specified bike route through the neighborhoods you still have to go out onto the main roads at some point. First main road speed limit is 30mph where people routinely go 40-45. Second main road is 35mph where people also go 40-45. And the final stretch of "stroad" speed limit is 45mph where people go 55-60mph.
Here you can use Google streetview and follow the route as if you were biking and see it yourself. https://maps.app.goo.gl/v4MnfPeZ9LuFzV8y6?g_st=ac (Don't worry, I'm not doxxing myself)
I’m shocked not just at the lack of proper infrastructure but also at how badly maintained and decrepit everything looks. If you showed me these pictures and told me this was somewhere in a former soviet state in eastern Europe I would have believed you.
You can take a look around my nearest Domino’s. This one is the closest to my place (not doxing myself either here). There is no dedicated cycling infrastructure here as this is in a 30 kilometer zone near a shopping center and a school (max speed ~ 18mph) so there’s lots of speedbumps the road is fairly narrow to encourage driving at low speed. If you move out of the 30 km/h zone you’ll see cycling infrastructure appear. It’s also a few hundred meters from the F35 bicycle highway.
Wow everything looks so well maintained! Guess that's the difference when you look at taxes as doing your part for the good of everyone vs the "gubment stealin ur hard earnd cash" sentiment we have around here. Also it looks like things are just plain closer together too.
There are some nicer places a little bit southeast of where I live but they're even further apart because the houses are bigger, the lots they are on are bigger and that makes the neighborhood larger which makes getting anywhere pretty much require a car. Not like I could afford living over there anyway haha
