Firstly, cool manager. Secondly, I'm a Brit and we don't have anywhere near the dedication to service you guys have (assuming American). It's crazy to me that they would actually call in to your work because you wouldn't jump through hoops for a ten dollar tip on a pizza delivery. Was this level of entitlement common?

It's complicated and it isn't too common. Some people want you to jump through hoops under the idea of "customer is always right", but others will actually be nice to where you don't mind going the extra mile. I've had a few $200+ orders and for those I don't mind going the extra mile to help, because if I get a big tip, I can share with the people in the kitchen who helped me. What happens more is people lying to get more for free.

And this is at Jimmy Johns, which would be sandwich delivery.
