Is this a serious question? Of course I do. I'm not a ing bunghole. Pretty much the exact response I had planned. I always do.

No, I don't.
All they did was drive to my house. If that makes me an a-hole, so be it.

what's the difference between tip and delivery charge? Delivery charges are usually a tiny fraction of the cost of your order that is there to help a driver with mileage, but trust me.. It hardly helps at all. Thats why you should always tip, even if there is a delivery charge.

I rarely order pizza for delivery, but I always try and tip if I do. I feel pretty bad when I don't have enough to give the guy a good tip.

We don't "do" tips here. I pay the delivery charge and collect my pizza.

Because, that's how I roll Seriously though, I'm pretty selfish when it comes to money...just the way I am I guess Ill be honest with you man, if you do the same thing when you go to restaurants, I highly advise you to not go to the same place twice unless you're not grossed out by things you eat. Ive never delivered pizza but I use to be a server at a restaurant. For the most part they work hard for every little penny they make, especially since they have to depend on other people. We also have excellent memories. If you us over on a tip, we'll remember you when you come back in. If you've never seen the movie Waiting, you should def watch it. If you think things like that dont happen at restaurants or dont happen at restaurants around you........I advise you to start eating dinner at home more often. To answer the question, yes I always tip the Pizza guy. Usually $2 but Papa Johns and Pizza Hut are literally right over the hill from my house so they dont even have to hit the gas peddle. If its a pizza girl, I usually tip her 8 1/2 !

I just don't get delivery. I'm in a college town so everything is in walking distance, and out of pure stinginess I'd rather not pay extra for a delivery fee.
But for the record, if I did I would tip the guy. Some of you guys are dicks.

I always do.
Even if it is not the best.
I will usually give $2-5 but sometimes it could be more depending on if I ordered more stuff.

We rarely order pizza, but we tip every food deliverer. We order chinese more and we usually tip to make it a round number, EG if it is £17.40 we give £20

I ask this question because I am a pizza delivery guy and lately the tips have been terrible. It's a little frustrating because the job itself pays like crap and you count on those tips. I always feel pretty good at the end of my shift if I averaged $2.00 per delivery. Lately, I have been averaging around 0.90-1.25 per delivery which doesn't pay the bills. lol I will say that I used to tip more. Obviously depending on the total bill......I would tip a min. of $2 and as much as $5. HOWEVER, since many companies are adding these ridiculous delivery charges of $1.50-$2.50......sorry pizza boy, your tip is getting cut. There is no reason to hit me with a delivery charge. The tip IS the delivery charge. I am paying extra to have the pizza delivered by giving a tip. I know its not required and some people probably stiff the delivery guy anyway, but the delivery charge isnt share with the delivery guys anyway.

What is the average pay there? as a server, I made $2.13 an hour + Tips.....I also rarely if ever worked 40 hours in a week either. A bi weekly paycheck for me on a good week would be pushing $200. I make that in half a week now.

I always tip well... to the point where my wife thinks I over-tip on occasion.
However, tonight I ordered Papa John's, intending to have it delivered. When I got to the end of the online order, I saw the $2.75 "delivery charge" and decided to pick it up myself.
I know that fee helps make up for people who stiff the delivery guy, but I'm not one of those people, and I don't really appreciate having a mandatory fee charged for delivery. Especially since they aren't straightforward with the fact that delivery isn't free anymore. I had no idea until checkout.
But as for tipping, unless the service was excessively terrible -- like the food never arrived, guy was a jerk to your face, etc. -- there's no reason not to tip.

Is this a serious question? Of course I do. I'm not a ing bunghole. This. However, 98% of the time (pizza or any other food), I'll just go pick it up. I feel reallyyy lazy when I order out, and it's just an extra (albeit somewhat minimal) expense.
