1. Hmm... Since the topic has been broached, do DUers tip for takeout?

That is when you pick up yourself? I am very inconsistent in my approach, tipping when I know a waitress has been pulled away to write up and prepare the order. Yet, I often don't when I go to most Chinese restaurants since many are predominantly "take out" rather than "sit down" restaurants to begin with. When I do tip, I don't tip 15%, but usually more like 10-12%...

So, while I always tip well in a traditional restaurant setting and I tip standard 15% to delivery orders, would I end up on this guys "terrible tip" list for not doing so consistently with pick up orders? Should I?
