If you don't tend to tip your food delivery drivers, perhaps this debate that's being had on social media will change your mind.
It all started with a short but powerful video posted to the platform, which shows a Domino's employee's furious reaction to not receiving a tip.
Check out his reaction here:The visibly angry delivery driver, who is known on TikTok only as Malik, shouts "No!" at the start of the clip. It appears that the video was filmed by another employee who tells Malik: "Bro, just calm down!"
Ignoring the remark, Malik continues: "I don’t want to work here anymore! Five minutes! Five minutes out there in the rain, and no tip? No tip?"
He then proceeds to strike stacks of empty pizza boxes sending them flying.
Malik's shocked co-worker responds: "Oh s**t. What the f**k!"
The snubbed Domino's employee captioned the video: "This is why you should tip your drivers."
It has been viewed 1.6 million times, has received over 208,000 likes and more than 18,000 comments at the time of writing.
Malik's irate reaction to not being tipped sparked a real debate in the comments, with many arguing that you should simply make food at home if you cannot tip.
One wrote: "If you can't tip then don't order out. Literally in a pandemic lmao."
Another argued: "Yall don't understand that even 2-3$ helps tremendously. It can make somebody's entire day."
A third shared: "Aw this makes me sad because it was probably repeated deliveries with no tips. He finally hit his breaking point."
However, not everyone agreed that tipping is all that positive, with one arguing: "Honestly tho tipping is a broken system no one should rely on tips, companies start paying ur workers bruh [sic]."
Another said: "Corporations use the tipping system to underpay their workers. Do away with tipping and pay people enough to live."
A third said: "I always tip well however the practice of tipping instead of owners paying a living wage makes no sense. You can pin that extra cost on the food."
However, the pro-tippers argued back, with one saying: "To the people who are complaining about leaving a tip... you simply shouldn't eat out or maybe go pick it up yourself. Drivers rely on tips!!"
