bag a meal is not what we're talking about. Wake up and follow along. We're discussing a huge order. One that takes time. You DO understand the concept of time, don't you? It make take a couple minutes to take your ONE meal and bag it for your convenience. Now, multiply that by 25 to 50. Get the picture?
Rearranging the facts of a situation to fit an argument is a Liberal thing. Not one fit for FR.
Save it for the political threads.

Thumper you have to read the majority of posters here are good tippers but do not usually tip for takeout.
We tip for table service and for delivery. That’s understood.
While I understand a 700 order being unusual I also understand the church lady not knowing.
I oick up three or four dry cleaned shirts for $20. No tip, ever. No one wants one. There is no tip jar.
If I have a big wedding party or something and pick up 40 shirts for $200 am I suddenly supposed to tip?
Do I tip the clerk at Macy’s because I bought 20 pairs of shoes whereas I usually only buy one? Etc.
The fault here, if this lady isn’t blowing smoke, is with management. Since it is NOT USUAL to tip for takeout - which us actually why some take out instead of eat in - management should tell people with large takeout orders that tipping is customary, or build a gratuity into larger orders. Caveat emptor.
