Re: What would you tip for this order?
Around my house, 20 to 25 percent is the customary tip for pizza delivery. (My brother used to deliver pizzas, so we know what they go through.) Forking over a 20 and saying "keep the change" is about 22% in this case, plus you get to eating the pizza faster and the driver gets to go on his way. Everybody wins.

Re: What would you tip for this order?
I pay 1/6 the price if I'm satisfied, and 1/7 otherwise.

Re: What would you tip for this order?
This isn't a full service restaurant though, this is pizza delivery. You tip that high for delivery? Most pizza guys make like an hourly wage plus mileage.

Re: What would you tip for this order?
Tip based on whatever you ordinarily would have tipped had you made the same order but without coupons.
Or in other words, when you use coupons, though it reduces the cost of the items, do not reduce the amount of your tip. They still did the same work as if you hadn't used coupons and deserve the full tip. |

Re: What would you tip for this order?
Just thought I'd address this (and other variations of it that were said through the thread)
My dad took on dominoes as a side job; They make min wage (or a little higher) when they're in-store the moment you leave the store on a delivery, you drop to drivers wage (aka 4 something an hour), you're paid a little bit in mileage (but not very much), and the rest comes from tips. I don't like getting involved in conversations like this because I'm the type that likes to be overly nice about tips/etc, and it seriously irks me when people are assholes about it.

Invite him inside, offer him a beer, tell him tales of old travels, smoke some herp-a-derp, play some x-box, blow his mind with your flashflash skills, and then you will have tipped him with LIFE, which is priceless compared to the meager pocket change which he would have acquired through an ordinary delivery.

Re: What would you tip for this order?
I would use a $20 and not ask for change.
I wish the US would change their customs to the way they do it in Europe. Tips are just included in the bill and the restaurant pays the employees a normal wage. |

Re: What would you tip for this order?
the only time I tip is when the person handling my food goes above and beyond the expectations of his job

Re: What would you tip for this order?
What they deserve is a consistent pay for a consistent job. Pizza delivery isn't exactly a "service" that one person can do better than another.

Re: What would you tip for this order?
Actually, yes it is. It is a service job and someone very well could do a worse job at it than others. You are paying for the service of delivery of your order to your residence in a timely fashion while not messing up the pizzas or otherwise messing up in some manner.

the first one has a lousy attitude and says something like "hey here's your pizza that'll be x amount okay man bye" the second one has a great attitude and says stuff like "thanks for ordering from us we have here *repeats your order* and it comes out to x amount have a great day/night and enjoy" dunno about you but I'd tip the second one unfortunately the majority of delivery drivers are the first person
