      He paid for 10 orders and wouldn’t tip unless they came on time . Only one person got tipped $20 by not being late. His secret was since he didn’t tip in app people were less motivated then probably he became a shitblist house making his service worse. After 10 orders he got a pizza party free with points.

        But he still had to buy the bread bites, which you have to account for the price of in the price of the “free” pizza party. Bread items are also among the most overpriced things on the menu, so from Dominos’ perspective they might not have been losing any money at all to the guy who thought he had figured out how to scam them. wait nvm

          The being late to his house netted him 60 points via an automated apology email which is like 6 orders now.

          It sounds like he was purposely being a jerk so he could screw the drivers out of their tips, and meanwhile Dominoes made way more profit off those 10 orders than it cost them to give him one free pizza.

            How to screw someone out from what they weren’t promised?

              You can skip this disingenuousness. You know you are expected to tip the drivers . I don’t you; maybe you like being a jerk and screwing over low-paid employees, but don’t pretend that’s not what is happening.

                Or maybe, just maybe you close that loophole that allows empoyers pay less wage if you tip?

                You tip for good service, you don’t tip because it is expected. Your mentality is part of the problem. Also, be mad at restaurants for underpaying positions that get tips, not customers. Restaurants literally fought to be able to pay a lower minimum wage “because the worker receives tips”. That is exactly the same as them saying “hey, can we legally steal money from our tipped employees”. Tips are a bonus and should never be expected, it is a toxic culture.

                Also, in his case, if the driver did their damn job and followed the ONE request he left they would get a huge tip. Hell, the one request was to knock, something they always would do otherwise. They had to see that, then go out of their way to NOT do it BECAUSE they knew he wanted them to. So that is on them for being trashy.
