As one of the takeout people in our restaurant I am dependent on tips for additional income just as a server would be, yet guests in general, do not tip the takeout person, why? Think about it, a server greets you at the table, takes your order, places the order, picks it up from the service line (galley) and brings it to you. They refill your drinks, check on you and then after completion of your experience, you tip the server. Now, the takeout person greets you, on the phone and in person, they take your order, place the order and many times, prepare your order, they package it and bring it to you, accept your payment, offer you refills if indicated, and thank you. What did the server do that is so much different then the takeout person did? Shorter exposure and time maybe, but not much other difference, so why did you not tip them? Ok, why not at least 10%?
