I always do $5 for deliveries, arbitrary rule. Unless it's a big order.

I originally intended to reply saying I have been doing this for 20 years but then I stopped to think about that for a second. 20 years.

The world is kind of different now and inflation over that time period is probably 50%. Everything has become more expensive from food to gas. Or maybe the rising price of gas is part of that. But for 20 years I have almost always been giving a flat $5. While that has pretty much always amounted to 20% or more in my case, they are expending fuel and vehicle lifespan as they risk their lives in some small way to deliver that food.

I realized long ago that not getting a raise is similar to taking a pay cut due to inflation and that this infuriates me, but until now I hadn't stopped to consider that I have been guilty of this myself for 20 years.

Thank you.
