Reply to comment by SmartSherbet in Hey Alexa, thank my driver by caniremainanonymous

That being said, I am also all for drivers getting a little extra right now and if this is the way I am for it. This situation does not meet the express definition of tipping culture as this money IS coming from their company and not the individual clients directly (I mean for real anyone who uses Amazon has contributed to this so there is that).

So while I agree that tipping culture sucks (pay people fair wages) I can also say I am ok with this (sure I can say 4 words and get some person an extra 5$).

Yeah, I read the article too quickly and thought the $5 was added on to the customer's tab for the order. Glad to see that Amazon is providing the money.

Totally fair - I would have had a similar reaction to the one you expressed if that was the case so I get that!
