On certain items, Sam’s Club requires a $8-$12 delivery fee. This is problematic enough given some items are free delivery.

At the end of the order process, I’m then asked to tip the driver. It seems to me that Sam’s Club could put together a big enough delivery route to be able to pay a driver well and maintain the delivery van at that delivery fee per each stop.

I feel over-charged paying tip on top of that. However, I never dick over delivery drivers. Is Sam’s Club paying them? How much? What is that delivery fee going towards?

So I end up tipping.

More frequently, I just avoid ordering items with a delivery fee. (Not a good option for people stuck at home for good reasons like age, disability, lack of transportation, etc.)

Oddly, customers are not asked to tip on the free delivery items.

    Imagine if we just were really strict about paying livable wages?

    All the shitty companies that can’t figure out how to work on the budget of fair compensation would just… Fail.

    Those would-be CEOs will end up in debt, the businesses that exist would be better, and the workforce would be happier and more productive.

    Wild.
