Tipping is the mistress of the service industry. And if you've ever enjoyed the luxury of dining out or having your bags carried from the hotel lobby to your room, you presumably already know about it.

Consumers and service providers have been having this discussion for a long time. Should I leave a tip?

We may be underestimating how obvious the solution is. Paying the people who have helped you personally is considered a sign of camaraderie.

You don't just give someone a few dollars extra when you tip them. You're expressing gratitude and admiration but today's story is just a total reverse.

Imagine asking someone who served you to tip instead. Where in the world does a service provider tip a customer?

Well, that is what we see in today's story as shared by u/[deleted] on the r/entitledparents subreddit. He got an order alert on his phone for a relatively simple but expensive order, and he admitted that drivers do love expensive orders.

He was told to call instead of ringing the bell, as that would disturb her autistic son. He did so, but alas, the woman started asking for a discount, which the OP wasn't in charge of.

Still, the woman wanted the OP to either pay for the food or tip her since her "son is autistic, and it's your fault that he's still hungry!" Read the full story for yourself as you keep scrolling down. 

The title

You will always have idiots in every service job

Delivery drivers do love expensive orders and the OP got one

And the dialogue begins...

The OP didn't realize how ridiculous the idea that people pay for their own food is

"Since I've had to go through so much trouble with you, you should tip ME!"

The OP couldn't make out what she was saying

The OP tells the Nice Support Lady all that transpired

She said she will try to get the woman deactivated and her review will be off the OP's record

Let's hear what other redditors have to say as the OP really had a lot of fun in the comments

Here goes the OP engaging redditors

Some people are really, really rude

The OP comes again with another banger

They're literally saying that it's better to be dead than autistic

Paying for his schooling and for his first date

The OP admits that this comment would have been funny

There are really a bunch of entitled parents out there

This Redditor refers to it as bad parenting

The OP says that the bad review is off his record

Oops...

Why would she use her son's disability to get get things for free?

So pretty until they open their mouths

It's challenging to work in the service sector. The pay is often modest, the labor is tough, and tipping is a complicated topic for both customers and service industry employees.

But asking a worker to tip you is just ridiculous. You've read what other Redditors have to say, and you can drop your opinions in the comments below.
