Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, lady.
I’m a big tipper in real life, having been a waitress myself, but it would not occur to me to tip for a takeout order. I would assume the food was prepared and assembled by kitchen staff rather than table servers, who are busy serving at tables.
(If the table server was free because nobody was at the tables, then she was not losing tips by helping arrange a takeout order.)
Lots of times it’s up to the waitress to assemble and bag the order, making sure the correct dressings and add ons are in the bag. Most restos it’s on the waitperson, not the kitchen. Sad, but true.
I was a cocktail waitress and then bartender for 20 years. I always made excellent tips but realized right away there are some people who just dont tip. I never would have even thought about saying something to them. This new entitlement just amazes me.
And like you, I dont tip for take out. And yes, I tend to over tip.

You mean like hundreds of dollars?
