I remember being able to put in a negative tip to zero out the order cost, checkout, and tip in cash. So I don't find this shocking.

delivery guy pays you to deliver your food

They're still telling stories about how they got to watch BlueGh0st take the bag with his own hands. They begged to watch him eat, but that creeped him out a bit. They settled on an autograph and a handshake instead of payment. Ah, the life of a celebrity HN user.

Considering what we're talking about, a negative tip might have actually charged the driver. Hope you tipped in cash more than you negative tipped. :-P

Yeah that was definitely a concern ahah. But it was a past and short-lived life and tipping big was definitely a favorite hobby at the time, so I'm sure that if I completed the order that he got a stack!
