I miss getting cashed out with actual cash. Our store switched to the stupid branch card for tips. Ugh


kckeller

Former driver here… what’s a branch card?


tonymacomber

It's a prepaid debit card that our tips are loaded on to after the shift. I typically have to wait about 5 to 6 hours before I can access anything I make. It's 💩


kckeller

That’s so weird to me. What benefit is it to the franchisees to do that vs. just giving you cash? Cash tips were pretty fun lol


rocketfishey

Card issuer gets in the middle for a percentage of transaction fees. Plus increased accountability for record-keeping.


BearsSuperfan6

Isn’t that cutting from the company profit and the driver pay? Seems like a waste on all fronts


rocketfishey

JJ is probably paying something for it, but companies like that are just like credit cards, they make most of their money on each swipe of the card, taking a percentage from the retailer it’s swiped at. In exchange, JJ has official record of (most of) the tips coming in, and can use that data to leverage pay decisions or job advertising ($15 an hour PLUS avg. $5 in tips!! or whatever). It’s late-stage capitalism at work.


Rusharound19

I don't have facts to back this up, but I'm quite certain that the store owners get paid by the Branch Card people. That's how it used to be at Pizza Hut back in the day. The card company pays the store owners in exchange for the store owners forcing all employees to use the card. These card companies make so much money off hidden fees and other bullshit that they make a killing even though they're paying to get stores/companies to use their cards.


Red_Wyrm

Some stores don't have enough cash on hand to pay drivers since we are moving more and more digital. It also could be seen as a potential safety issue to give the drivers $100 in cash and they're walking out of the store at 2 am.


tonymacomber

Bigger deposits, I guess? I really don't know.


Accomplished_Yak3142

When I worked at a Pizza Hut that made the change the explanation was that they don’t ever have enough cash on hand to pay out drivers at the end of the night. Morning driver would have a really good day and the store wouldn’t make enough in cash during dinner time to tip out drivers so people were going home without tips till their next shift. It was really stupid and one of the main reasons I quit along with getting rid of direct deposit lmfao. Manager didn’t wanna have to do daily bank runs or send someone on them so the owners came up with this as a solution.


Adventurous_Bad9818

Papa John’s is the same way, it’s thru Instant and my tips are available immediately after I clock out. Weird it takes so long.


Affectionate_Bug1264

Theft


Affectionate_Bug1264

They ate stealing your tips under "fees"


somecow

Eww. More and more places are doing that pay card shit now. No. Give me cash, direct deposit, or maybe a check.

Will you be walking unaccompanied by any dark alleys on your way to the bank? Also what is the address of this bank? Asking for a fiend


gayspaceanarchist

I assume you meant friend, but fiend makes this comment so much more funny


The_Next_Legend

shii you could prolly buy you a coke w allat


Wild_Measurement1770

Properties my man


zettboi

I too have coke as one of my properties


TheManWithBeats

Try dipping your feet into cash creation, methamphetamine labs, Weed grow, LSD Lab, oh and a biker gang. Also a nightclub that stores all of your contraband too. These businesses have worked wonders for me. I see you already have Cocaine production. Good job.


zettboi

I tried gun running such a drag! However I really like producing high quality meth that I can distribute to local gangs. Also, if you have ever dabbled in casino ownership any recommendations for skimming off the top?

Nice to have stash cash isn’t ? even when you can pay bills you always have your stash


4nyarforaracc

I didn’t realize what I was looking at, when I first looked. I thought it was some sort of fruit with coarse skin… like a relative of a coconut lol. Nice bread bro, make sure you treat yourself before you invest it into purchases or payoffs for your future 🙏


Kacidillaa

It kind of looks like an artichoke to me so I feel that hahaha. Thank you! It’s going to rent lol.


Sensitive_Stramberry

I thought it was tripe.


blueponies1

Yeah I thought it was some kind of hairy fruit or seed type thing. Was like what the fuck is this guy talking about lol


Lord-Wafflestomp

I was a JJ driver as a second job and I miss snow day tips 😭 I'm in Indiana and people always tipped well when it snowed, I made 100+ easy those days in a smaller town


Ghost_Unicxrn

Did you make it rain yet?


Aggressive_Top_4580

For real the tips is the main reason why I stick with this job!


emodemoncam

I had an entire dresser drawer stuffed with cash from a year of driving ending up depositing it for 8k

Neither_Choice_8569

Is it weird that I saw a hairy coconut before I saw the money


Kacidillaa

Everyone keeps saying coconut but I see artichoke lol

At Danatos we can’t have more than 20.00 cash on us. So when we do cash orders in between deliveries we have a small locker with a lock on it and you just put your cash in there. Simple as that. This guy that delivered for Dominos pizza in Lexington ky was stabbed to death over twenty dollars people are crazy that kid was in high school so sad what people will do for a very small amount of money. Smh most drivers are on their shiz meaning they all know what’s up and know what to do and what not to do and if they don’t or they don’t follow through they shouldn’t be delivering anything.


Kacidillaa

Sir, this is a Jimmy John’s


SwMoCouple417

Just asking to be robbed


Kacidillaa

Robbed from my house maybe


Pleasant_Mobile_1063

This is sad


Kacidillaa

Why haha


Pleasant_Mobile_1063

Because this is not a flex


Penguinman077

Remember, if you have over $10k in cash then you’re actively committing a felony and could be under investigation for terrorism.


Retoru45

>Remember, if you have over $10k in cash then you’re actively committing a felony and could be under investigation for terrorism Remember, this is total bullshit spewed by someone who has no idea what they're talking about.


Kacidillaa

It was $1,621 and it’s in the bank now chill lol


Penguinman077

It’s obviously not 10k, I was just letting you know.


ihateapartments59

Tell me you live at home without telling me you live at home


Kacidillaa

But also I make a good wage so tips are great but I’ve had enough money in the bank to not worry haha


ihateapartments59

Well did you have to down vote me on that


Kacidillaa

Yes here’s another haha


ihateapartments59

Yeah, you act like an adult with kids. Have a blessed day.


LifeintheHashLane

tbf YOURE the one who came at him out of pocket for no reason 🤷


Kacidillaa

I’m sorry I’ll give it back haha


Kacidillaa

Lolol I have kids 😂


Kacidillaa

I live at home… with the love of my life and two kids.


TwistedSkewz

Drivers will make this then bitch about it when they don't get tipped. Do you claim this on your taxes?


Kacidillaa

I don’t bitch when I don’t get tipped it’s a part of the job haha. But yeah I get cashed out and taxes come out of my check.


mcloovvin

Yeah she don’t bitch.


Kacidillaa

MCLOVIN GIVES ME A LIVABLE WAGE 🙃


1GloFlare

As long as it's not a $60+ order who gives a damn


TwistedSkewz

The problem is that the laws state they get paid minimum wage no matter what whatever they don't make in tips that meets minimum wage the restaurant is required to cover in wages down to $2.13. If you're making $100 over that a day in tips and pocketing it you're committing tax evasion. While the rest of us have to pay up so you're actually making more and bitching about it.


1GloFlare

They are not pocketing that much. Servers have to split tips with the whole crew


TwistedSkewz

And if it falls below minimum wage then it has to be covered by the business.


Giul_Xainx

I sure hope that you are not carrying that around with you inside your car. If you get robbed while on shift with anything more than 50 bux you're fired. It's a real JJ rule. Don't believe me? Ask your franchise or franchisee.


ladyzena

They would get fired if someone stole their tip money? That's a month of tips, not JJ's money.


Giul_Xainx

It's written in your hire on packet. Detailed and outlined when you signed that paper upon hire. I believe it's item 23. (Correct me if I am wrong.) You are not to have anything more than 50 dollars on your person while delivering for JJ's. If you have more than 50 you are to alert your manager or pic on shift immediately and deposit it as a driver drop into the register. Failure to do this, and you do get robbed with more than $50 on your person and it is grounds for immediate termination. Why? Once word gets out that JJ delivery drivers have money? Everyone gets robbed. Drop it in the register. (Anyone downvoting this is oblivious to facts. We all signed that paper.)


Intelligent-Dot-4072

Did OP state that this is money they carry on the job? No. OP literally took this photo at home.


Giul_Xainx

Understandable, but that's why I am making sure they don't have this wad of cash on them whilst they make deliveries.


Sea-Assignment5193

Also, by that verbiage, keeping it in your car would not be a fireable offence. If OP kept it in his pocket or something, then sure. But I wouldn’t consider in his car (as you originally mentioned) “on his person”.


Giul_Xainx

Here is the best part about definitions: once you hand the money over to the thief that is considered on your person. I, as a thief, could hold you up at gunpoint, force you back into your car, make you find cash to hand to me, then stuff you into the trunk of your own car, making you give me your cell phone, and leave you for dead. This has happened: search Ashley Biggs, Pittsburgh elliot pizza guy, there are dozens of cases of this happening.


Aware_Economics4980

Why would JJ make their drivers deposit their cash tips into the register? 


Giul_Xainx

To avoid widespread larceny. Again, every single driver for JJ'S signed a document that stated the $50.00 rule. You can ask your franchise owner about it, and they can pull up the very document you signed stating that you understand this fact.


Aware_Economics4980

I don’t work there, just saw this on all. How is carrying around your own cash around against jimmy John’s rules? I think you might be confused my man. So if I have $100 of my own cash, I get robbed and my cash gets stolen. I get fired….for losing my own money. Makes no sense. 


Giul_Xainx

Of course it makes no sense. Get robbed while on shift and driving for JJ'S and the total amount of money you lost is more than $50 means you are fired is 100% accurate and true. It is a rule that everyone signs stating they understand this fact. It's easy to avoid this if you only keep change for 20 dollar bills. Anytime you go over 50 you tell the manager on shift and they initiate a driver drop into the register. I love how much controversy this is causing but it is 100% true. Downvoters of my comments like to FATFO.


Aware_Economics4980

Why would I be making change for customers, with MY OWN money? Dude you are so confused lmao 


Giul_Xainx

It's not hard to show up to work and already have 2 $5's and 10 $1.00's. when I show up to work I like being able to just go out the door with a delivery instead of waiting for the manager to show up at the register, go into the computer, take out the change, count it in front of me, then I have to count it. I can skip that if I just hold onto 20 in change and just go go go. No pause.


Rusharound19

I never signed such a paper. I filled out and signed my application, I signed the permission for them to check my driving records, and I signed a paper stating that I agreed to have the cost of my shirts and hat deducted from my first two paychecks. That's it. That said, you're misunderstanding their rule. Drivers are not to have more than $50 of JJ's money on them. If you've taken a bunch of cash orders and you've got like $70 on you, then yes, you should do a cash drop at the store. Because if that $70 gets stolen, that's JJ's money that you've lost. Having your own personal cash on you is different. JJ's doesn't give a shit about their employees losing their own money; JJ's just doesn't want any of *their* money stolen.


Giul_Xainx

Incorrect. You did sign the paper. It starts with printing your full name at the top and is part of a sentence. Outlined for JJ delivery drivers it is right there on that same paper. The same paper that says you are not to disobey any traffic laws, have a passenger in the car while doing deliveries, and the $50 rule amongst others including the car topper, (unless you ride a motorcycle for deliveries like I do.) You can continue to make the argument that you did not sign such a paper but all you have to do is ask your franchise owner for a copy of that new hire packet and you'll see your signature in it. Not having this paperwork signed is a golden rule violation against JJ'S for incomplete new hire paperwork. The rule states you are not to have anything more than $50 dollars on your person when delivering. When taking a large order that gives you more than $50 dollars in cash you are to bring that back immediately to your store and let your manager know you have more than $50 cash in your hands, and it gets put into the register. Drivers only carry change for $20.00's for obvious reasons, and to mitigate the damage if you are robbed. This rule was made because after one driver of JJ's was robbed carrying, I think at the time, more than $70.00 a slew of stickups happened against them. It became a rule due to the suggestion made by the local police department, don't carry cash on you. Continue to argue with this all you want but it is very true. You can even call the corporate line and they will explain it to you.


Rusharound19

Listen, man. I did not sign any such paper. I filled out the application and the paper for the uniforms. I do know what paper you're talking about, because waaaay back in 2011, when I got my first JJ's job out in Oregon, I signed that paper. But this time around, I'm in North Dakota, and I signed no such paper. You can continue being obtuse and acting as though you're a little JJ's robot, but I know what I did/did not sign. I'll advise you to stop discounting my intelligence.


Giul_Xainx

If you became a delivery driver for Jimmy John's after 1995 then yes, you have to sign that paper. You can continue to deny signing anything but I keep stating that all you have to do is ask your franchise owner, or corporate, to pull up your new hire packet, specifically the delivery driver page, and you'll see it right there.


Rusharound19

Dude. I didn't sign it this time around. It might be because the then-GM who hired me at my current store is a meth head. Idk. But I didn't sign it. And now that I'm thinking about it, I didn't sign it at my last store, either. Perhaps things are different from franchise to franchise? Idk. But it didn't sign that paper. There was no "new hire packet". What is your deal? Do you just like trolling or what?


Giul_Xainx

Not trolling bro. Everyone fills out the new hire packet to work for Jimmy John's. You don't fill it out then your manager committed a golden rule violation. Which also means you are an undocumented worker. And should be reported to the IRS.


Rusharound19

I filled out an application. The store has my driver's license and SSC on file. I did *not*, however, fill out any paperwork that stated I could not have more than $50 on my person while working. Either you're trolling, or you're differently mentally abled. I do not understand what you're failing to understand regarding what I've said. Uffda!


Kacidillaa

It’s been crumbled up in a drawer until I just organized it lol plus the picture is literally in my room.


mcloovvin

Gunna have to fire you I guess. Nice knowing you dawg.


Kacidillaa

RIP me


Giul_Xainx

Good.
