If I can't afford to tip, I don't bother ordering in the first place.

I rarely order Pizza, considering all near Pizza Huts closed and Dominos is disgusting.

I usually pick up the pizza, but I order Chinese food a lot, and I tip usually 3 or 4 dollars. If it is really crappy out, like snowy or rainy, I usually give 6-7 because I wouldn't want to be put in their position, so I try to make it up to them for having to get me food.

I used to work at Papa Johns for almost 2 years. One thing some people don't realize is it's not always the drivers fault your pizza is late. Many times it was the pot smoking losers in the store that mess things up or forget to make the pizza and the driver takes the heat for it since the customer wants someone to yell at. When I worked for Papa Johns I felt really old and I was only 27 but I was only 1 of 2 people in the store who didnt around smoking pot and drinking in the stores and EVEN ON DELIVERIES! I also had 2 other jobs at the time and always made it to work when scheduled. I can't even count how many times employees would no show no call every day. The store reaked of pot and we even had customers call up complaing about the smell of reefer on the pizza box. At night people would smoke from a pipe as they were cutting the pizza. I don't even know how I lasted 2 years and quitting that job was the best thing ever. To answer your question I usually just pick up the pizza myself because after you add a delivery charge and a $3 tip were talking an extra 5 or 6 dollars you could have saved.

That's what sucks about franchises. If the owner of whichever location it is doesn't care, then the place can go to hell and no one can do anything about it. I had the same problem when I was 14 and started working at McDonald's.

always. Dealing with people all day, you deserve it.
But giving detail on why some people don't tip, Is because I remember a thing not too long ago where they averaged in a tip cost to the pizza. I believe they call it a delivery fee. This was a scapgoat to non-tippers. And from that it lives on. I wouldn't mind this being confirmed or denied. So is that true? Is the delivery fee given as tip to the delivery driver?

Always. Pizza people make UNDER minimum wage so there pay is in the tips.
Plus i tip well that way they remember you and yes, it counts. Now I usually get my pizza within 15 minutes instead of 30 as they know my address tips well.

I almost ever get delivery. when you live most of your life in an area that doesn't get delivery, you get used to going yourself That and if I'm going to get food from a restaurant, I'm going to eat there if I can. I love going to restaurants. But on the rare chance that I do get delivery, I would always tip.
