Do you tip the Pizza delivery guy?

[nsrammstein]

So when you order a pizza do you tip the pizza deliver guy? I jusr ordered a pizza from pizza hut and the delivery charge was $2.50, im thinking about not giving a tip..

[phyzik]

yes, I tip. The delivery charge barely covers their gas. That is why its there.

[DPG21920]

yes you tip

[angel_luv]

yes, I tip. The delivery charge barely covers their gas. That is why its there.

Do they make delivery people pay for their own gas?

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

I'm experiencing deja vu.

There's a 30 page thread on tipping already. Look it up.

[I Love Me Some Me]

If they get minimum wage, don't tip. If they get less than minimum wage, tip.

[nsrammstein]

I'm experiencing deja vu.

There's a 30 page thread on tipping already. Look it up.

Then why bother to come in this thread and post your bullshit?

[xtremesteven33]

dude i used to be a delivery guy and getting tips is to be expected from customers.

tip the guy 2$ and hell be content

[Slomo]

Waiting for Manny's opinion on this one...

I'm just doing my part to help the specially enabled.

[MoSpur]

I tip

[florige]

I always tip $3.

[MannyIsGod]

Waiting for Manny's opinion on this one...

:lmao

As long as they don't park in the driveway.

[JudynTX]

To answer your question, I tip $5.....if the pizza is hot.

$3 if it isn't.

[InRareForm]

two bucks does the job.

[SpursWoman]

Absolutely.

[Borosai]

Before, when I used to order pizza, I would usually just give the delivery person whatever was left over after paying (anywhere from two to four dollars).

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Borosai, I just saw your sig.


Good stuff!

[mrsmaalox]

I do.

[batman2883]

most def tip!!

[phyzik]

Do they make delivery people pay for their own gas?

Honestly, I dont know. I always thought the $2.50 is what covers it. Im just throwing blindly but I think the way it works is they pay for their own gas initially and once their paycheck comes the company adds on to their pay according to how many deliveries where made.

[Wild Cobra]

I don't know about all places, but usually the driver pays for his own gas unless it's a company car. The driver probably gets $1.00 of that $2.50 for gas. The rest of the delivery fee is to offset the cost of paying for the 10-20 minute round trip, drivers wages.

Tip a pizza driver at least $2.00. or at least 10%, which ever is larger. Add or subtract depending on the service, but remember. The driver is not the one who cooks it.

I tip a standard $5.00 plus change on normal orders. However, I drove for Dominos as a second job between good jobs. I am one that know the value of working for tips, and deliver drivers take the job for the tips. Not the minimum wage. Tip less than $2.00 and you will be classed as a loser.

[Borosai]

Borosai, I just saw your sig.


Good stuff!

Disclaimer: I'm not political. I just thought it was an easy target. :downspin:

[nsrammstein]

I tiped her 3 bucks is that enough for one large pizza?

[samikeyp]

absolutely.

I have been there, and that was at a time when gas was just a dollar.

If its bad weather I tip more because my lazy ass didn't want to fight it but some poor kid is.

[Sense]

Do they make delivery people pay for their own gas?


lol yes...

from when I used to work there.. they paid delivery people 1 dollar for each delivery... plus tips.... but I think it's different now, they probably give them the 2.50 plus tips..

and well they do get paid more than everyone else there...
it's still not much

[IronMexican]

I try to tip 2 bucks.

[balli]

I used to be one too and the answer is of course you tip the pizza guy. This is like asking, "Should I tip my waiter?" It's not like it's an open debate; there is a clear societal contract that pizza guys get tipped. You just do it, hot/cold, long wait/short wait, good pizza/bad pizza; that motherfucker needs to be tipped and if you don't do it, you're a big time asshole who's not just spitting in the face of that particular pizza guy, but rather the face of the entire service industry and the faces of tipping customers everywhere.

So if my pizza arrives cold with bites taken out of it and wrong toppings I should still tip? Fuck that

[baseline bum]

Tipping the pizza guy is automatic; he provides a valuable service. I will bump my tips up a bit after hearing the restaurants don't cover gas though; that really sucks for the deliveryman.

[IronMexican]

lol, this thread reminds me of the day our house got raided and my cousin went to jail. my dad was so happy, he took us to johnny rockets, and tipped them 10 bucks:lol

[Brutalis]

If anyone reading this post doesn't tip, you are a complete and utterly stupid asshole.

These guys use their own cars, pay for their own gas, and deal with assholes not tipping all the time. It was my first job when I was 16. And the rich fucks that didn't tip got paintball all over their house and cars.

[Brutalis]

Your pizza will never have a bite out of it dude.

You got to understand if the pizza tastes bad or is cold it's not his fault. He just delivers the shit. That's it. Blame the people at the pizza place for it not him.

[Kriz-Maxima]

Definitely tip.

[baseline bum]

I don't understand this attitude at restaurants either. Tips should always be independent of the quality of the food. You're not tipping the chef.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Barring any catastrophic delivery fuck ups I'll tip a flat $3. And I do mean catastrophic. The only time I ever stiffed a delivery guy was when they took an hour and a half to get there and parked halfway on the front lawn.

[Slomo]

I don't understand this attitude at restaurants either. Tips should always be independent of the quality of the food. You're not tipping the chef.

I thought that in most restaurant the waiters shared their tips with the cook(s)? If that's true then you are in fact also tipping the chef.

[velik_m]

No, never.

I've never heard of the cook getting any of the tip. All my friends who are waiters tell me they split the tips amongst themselves and the busboys.

[Mr. Pink]

fuck'em. if they don't like their job they can quit.

[Ronaldo McDonald]

wow, you are cheap.

[Brutalis]

I don't understand this attitude at restaurants either. Tips should always be independent of the quality of the food. You're not tipping the chef.

But you are. Did you know at Pizza Hut and major pizza places they have to document their tips and a certain percentage is taken out to share amongst the employee's?

99% of them just don't even report their tips. I didn't and they knew I was lying about it. But it's my fucking car, my gas and I didn't give a shit.

Also at restaurants they do the same thing with waiters. It's just about reporting what tips you got or keeping it to yourself.

[ORION]

you better F-ing tip at least $5.

[Heath Ledger]

fuckers $2? $2 was sufficent when gas prices were $1.50

[Mr Dio]

Long story behind it but I suggest, you DON'T order pizza from the Callaghan/410 Pizza Hut!

[AlamoSpursFan]

Is a tip customary if you order the pizza delivered to a neighbor's house and then jump out of the hedge and mug the delivery guy?

Just curious...

:lol

[MrChug]

If you don't, you must be a Mavs fan...and a cheap stupid one at that.

[Spuradicator]

I do unless they are slow.

[InRareForm]

[SpursforSix]

One time, me and a buddy were pretty high at a hotel and ordered some Dominos. The bill was $19.80 or so. I told him, I'd pay for the pizza if he would hand the guy a twenty and say, "keep the change".
I hid behind the door while my friend tried to execute this. He started laughing uncontrollable which made me start laughing as well. From behind the door. He couldn't get a word out. Just handed him the money and took the pizza in the middle of his fit.
I'm sure the pizza guy had seen it all before but later we felt bad and considered ordering another pizza and request the same driver. But then thought that would sound weird.

[spurraider21]

i always tip for delivery... but theres a dominos within 2 minutes driving distance from my place, and a lot of times it just makes sense to order carryout. dodge the delivery fee and tip.

that being said, i dont :cry feel sorry :cry for delivery boys... pizza delivery guys make REALLY good money (considering the line of work). i have friends who worked for dominos that would routinely make more than $100 a night on fridays and such

but again, i always tip when i get it delivered, usually somewhere betwen $3 and 5. my first job was in the food industry and i recognize that tips can go a long way

[The Reckoning]

$8 tbh

[Mitch]

2.50 per 10 bucks, tbh

Looks like a shitty job to have, I figure 25% is alright as long as they don't come really late or fuck up somehow

[Reck]

I dont.

Maybe if he would actually get off his ass and delivered to my door I would.

I have to get down the stairs and get it myself because they never want to come up.

[DJR210]

Lol

:lol why the fuck were you reading this thread?

LOL, same here. I haven't ordered delivery in so long since I'm really close to Dominos and they offer $7.99 two topping larges for carryout. I can drive a fucking mile and a half roundtrip. :lol

yep i get the same deal... i usually dont care for a lot of toppings anyway. pepperoni/bacon is nice, pepperoni/garlic... sometimes i go for the bbq sauce instead of red sauce and go with chicken/onion and thats pretty good too

when people order specials with 3+ toppings i dont even know what do put on it

[JMarkJohns]

Go to a real pizza place. Most don't deliver. Spend the extra money on quality, not convenience. Average cost of a large shit pizza from Pizza Hut, Dominoes, Papa Johns is probably like $15-17 bucks. $10-12 for the pizza, $2 bucks for delivery charge (which goes to the company to help pay for gas reimbursement), $2-3 bucks for tip, $1-2 for tax.

A real pizza from a real pizza place is likely about $15-20.

Some even have valuable eat-in specials including salad and or drinks.

One local pizzeria offers XL 2-topping, family salad, 4 drinks for $25 bucks. Large for only $20.

Get out. Eat real food.

Sometimes I just want something quick I can take home and eat while watching the Spurs, the Wednesday ESPN game, or the Thursday TNT one. And Dominos and Papa Johns both offer $7.99 larges, that's pretty hard to beat. I'll go to a nice place like Dough, Big Lou's, or BJs if I want something really high quality, but pizza is pretty hard to fuck up (except for Little Ceasars, how the fuck does that place stay in business?)

[JMarkJohns]

I get that. Maybe my situation isn't everyone's.

But I grew up on medium four-cheese/sausage for $5.90 from the ma and pa pizzeria from around the corner, whose owner was Italian, not a college age stoner or middle aged fuck up.

When I visit the folks, that same pizza is $8.25 now.

Tax included. Out the door.

[z0sa]

I'm too poor for anything other than LC's so :lol

No shit. Ceasars is disgusting but I see people getting that crap all the time.

I think Dough is a bit overrated. Up the street on Blanco is Ray's pizzeria which to me is a lot like Big Lou's

[SpursforSix]

No shit. Ceasars is disgusting but I see people getting that crap all the time.


I don't get this either. A few years ago, we'd get LC every once in a while because you could walk in and get a $5 pizza. But I'd end up putting Frank's Red Hot on every bite. When they first came out, they used to have pretty decent sandwiches but I don't think any of them offer this anymore.

But with Dominos and Pizza Hut having easy online ordering and pretty good deals (2 regular pizzas for $5.99), I can't believe Little Caesars can stay in business.

[spurraider21]

When a college kid makes $100 in one night in a part time job that's good money. If dominos delivery is your career you have issues

[Frank Dux]

Hell yeah I tip. Usually $4-$5. That delivery driver enabled me to be lazy and not leave my couch except to answer the door—and I appreciate that.

[CavsSuperFan]

I always give a fat tip as long as the delivery person does not park in my driveway…:ihit

[SpursforSix]

I'm too poor for anything other than LC's so :lol

allright...here's what you do...

get you one of those soft coolers that has a strap and kind of looks like a purse. Go to CiCi's and pay for the buffet. Load up your cooler with as much pizza as you can stuff into it. Then take it home and freeze it. You can actually have an extra cooler in your car so you can take out the full one and swap. You should easily be able to get enough pizza for a week and a half. Plus you can get all different kinds of excellent pizza and the dessert pizza as well. You should go with a group though to help hide what you're up to.

I didn't have any cash to dip a Papa Johns delivery driver one day. I walked out to my car later on with spit all over the side.

[RD2191]

My local pizzaria has a large pie for 10 bucks. Effin love that place.

[Blake]

I hadn't had domino's in a while. I used to love it.

Had it tonight and it was disgusting. Also had the chicken Alfredo pasta. I've had better frozen microwave pasta from heb. I'm very sorry I ate that. Sticking with Pizza Hut from here on out for the fast pizza.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Agreed. Fuck the moral imperative nazi faggots. If the pizza is cold and/or more than 10-15 minutes late he's getting lesean mccoyed.
