Its just awfully hard to make assumptions either way, I think is where I’m getting hung up. I could even see some people being upset that you pity them without actual reason to.
I’m not sure if its better to assume nothing or to pick a path really though.

Considering the website asks you if you want to tip them and gives you suggested percentages, I don’t think anyone would feel that I was patronizing them by doing so. And honestly, if you get upset that someone is giving you money, you have a lot more wealth than any delivery driver I’ve ever heard of.

Its not the tip they wouldn’t like, its the pity. You don’t need to pity random strangers, you have no idea how their life is going.

I pity them because I pity anyone who is being paid shit wages. I don’t know what Domino’s pays but I know it isn’t enough because big food chains do not pay good wages. It has nothing to do with their circumstances and everything to do with the company they work for not giving them what they deserve.
Also, they don’t know that I pity them, so I’m not sure why it matters.
