E..n.ti.le.d Driver Said My $9 Tip Was ‘Too Cheap’ and Walked Off with My Dinner — I Gave Him an Epic Lesson He’ll Never Forget

After surgery and a cold, David, home alone, ordered a $30 turkey sandwich and soup, tipping the delivery driver $9. Too weak to cook, he eagerly awaited his meal. But his doorbell camera caught the driver, dissatisfied with the tip, muttering, “Nine bucks? Cheap,” before stealing the food. Shocked, David reported it to the delivery app, securing a refund, and informed the deli manager. Frustrated, he posted the video on a neighborhood Facebook

group, warning others. The post went viral, sparking outrage and humorous “life tips” for the driver, like “Karma’s a menu.” The story hit local news, and the delivery company publicly apologized, promising to discipline the driver. They privately messaged David, ensuring action without firing the driver. A replacement meal arrived with a note: “David, get well. We support you.” The community’s support and the driver’s lesson learned left David feeling vindicated. The soup and sandwich, flavored with compassion, tasted better than ever.
