An Observation
Like most pizza delivery businesses, my store often delivers large orders to church groups, and also to clubs and bars. Some of these kinds of customers order weekly, others on a semi-regular basis. Churches typically order from about fifty dollars to five hundred dollars worth of pizzas when they order for one of their groups, with bars tending to be in the fifty dollar range.
I've noticed one main difference between church customers and bar customers. Churches, regardless of the size of the church, or the affluence of the neighborhood they're in, will stiff the driver nine times out of ten, regardless of how many pizzas are delivered. And the stiff is usually accompanied by a patronizing attitude on the part of the person taking delivery.
Bars, who typically order eight to ten pizzas for their customers, almost always tip generously, and are grateful for the convenience of having food delivered.
I find it amusing and ironic that the so-called "sinners" seem to know more about how to act in a Christian manner than the self-righteous stiffers from the churches.
Your thoughts?
You didn't say so, but I'm going to assume that the churches in question
are fundamentalist denominations, both because of your geographical
location and because I'd like to think better of the liberal branches of
Christianity.
Forgot what I was going to say because I'm still giggling at John's
response...
The one shift I always hated when I waited tables was the Sunday Brunch
shift. The church people would descend and run you ragged with special
requests, then leave a %5 tip.
I think it's because they've put their cash in the collection plate leaving
them short for the pizza delivery guy. Plus they wouldn't think to
curse God while tipping him, but it's perfectly acceptable to talk down to
the pizza delivery guy.
