  • Are you tipping in the restaurant or being a waitress is not dangerous enough? by dressic (Thu 18th Mar 2021 8:07pm)
  • It was just about that by dressic (Thu 18th Mar 2021 8:44pm)
  • I had a hope that you say that. And of course you can. There is plenty just bad drivers, some multiapping and you wait an hour for the food from next corner fish and chips, some of them are tend to steal drinks or your McFlurry, some are just rude etc. Like, my point is, if you are happy with your delivery, there was nothing missing, it was quick and food was still hot when you pick it up from your doorstep you can easily classify this as good or even exceptional service I belive. by dressic (Thu 18th Mar 2021 8:41pm)

  • Take off accountant, car expenses such as fuel, budget for any potential repairs, equivalent of the holiday, tax, additional insurance on top of my SP&D by dressic (Thu 18th Mar 2021 11:52pm)
  • Yeah, I do by dressic (Fri 19th Mar 2021 12:05am)
  • How? It's 4/5£ taken off every hour for expenses? And I do not moan about characteristic of such work, it was my conscious decision based mainly on flexibility that it offers as I need it during studies. It just suprice me how rarely people tip here comparing to 2 other markets that I used to work in similar roles. I agree with comments saying that employer is responsible for your wage, not a customer, but still, that's how it works nowadays in certain roles including waitress, food delivery drivers, taxi drivers and many more, and it's not like all this people that rely also on tips will go out to protest against unfair wages. by dressic (Fri 19th Mar 2021 12:19am)
  • No, I tip the pilot by dressic (Fri 19th Mar 2021 12:37am)
  • £1.05 - H&R Insurance £0.70 - equivalent of holiday (still less than normal holiday entitled) £0.85 - Fuel £1.50 - fund in case of any repair, new tyres, etc (usually leaving 55/60£ per week for it) £1 - tax (quite hard to value after potentail of reimbursements at the end of the tax year) Obviously, you can cut many of these by working with no insurance, not paying taxes, YOLO and expecting that your car will be fine until end of its days but that's my calculation which I was taking into account when I started. Gives you 5,10. by dressic (Fri 19th Mar 2021 12:52am)
