Do you, as a person who delivers through DoorDash or UberEats or what have you, prefer to be tipped through the app or in cash?

    Until compensation in the food service industry is fundamentally reworked, always tip well.

    The compensation that gig-economy drivers accepted is the reason their pay can be so low. None of them are employees. Their independent contractors whose job can be done by anyone with a car and time on their hands. That means that the company doesn’t have to pay minimum wage or provide any benefits.

    All of that said the pay and benefits for people employed by restaurants is also messed up and needs reworked as well.
