see, while i can understand that it seems "odd" to tip someone for just sending the order back and ringing up and taking money for a takeout order, you have to remember that the person doing that is a server/bartender and is getting paid, AT MOST, about $3.35/hr or, more than likely, $2.12/hr. Restaurants use servers/bartenders for takeout orders to save on labor costs...

now, most people do actually tip for takeouts, but normally not more than 15% max, most around 10% or so
