When I used to deliver pizza I had this huge station wagon to deliver. I delivered pizza to this kid, get the money and he gives me the money. as I walk away from the house there was note inside that said, "Tip:Get a real job!" I pulled right onto the grass at his house and did a nasty lawn job. There was a huge strip about 10ft long. I was waiting for the parents to call and complain. I was going to tell them to ask their son why that happened. We never recieved a complaint call back at the store. Vigilante Pizza justice

uhhh... yeah. i do nothing. yup, thats it. i wonder where these direct checks in my bank account i get twice a month come from

grow the f*ck up kid. when i was in college, i worked part time for 3yrs. there were times when i got a well paying job for a college kid, and there were times when i was struggling to pay bills and other expenses. it was tough for me but so f*cking what. its tough for a lot of people out there in the real world. if you think im calling you stupid for working as a pizza delivery person, then so be it. take it however you want. i dont like food service jobs, so i looked at other options available to me. i used what knowledge/experience i acquired and through networks, i found all my jobs... including the one i have right now that i get paid way better than dropping off some pizza and hoping the person is nice to give me a fat tip.

Some one who never used to charge for a service, and then one day started. And it dose not cost them any more money to make the product: other then gas. And i am asking them to drive 1.8 miles.

I use to work for Domino's Pizza a couple of years ago, so I know firsthand what it's like to work as a delivery driver (even tho I mainly was a pizza maker) ...True, the work is on the easier side of the line, but thats where it stops...As a driver, you get minimum wage, as a base pay usually, .15-25 cents each run, and whatever tips you can make...I mean, drivers basically depend on those tips for their income, b/c they are not making shit for their regular wages... So, unless the driver is just a straight up prick, who is late b/c of his own fault, not the stores, then I'll give em just a dollar. But if i can tell that they were trying to do their job, for an order up to $25, i'll tip em $3-5...I think thats fair

i remember when my pizza delivery guy's car broke down infront of my house. he had 3 other pies sitting in there going to houses down the street. i put my pie down and said "here i'll take you to delivery the rest" and i did, he gave me all the tips from those 3 deliveries (wasn't much, but i was glad to help him).

The whole room fell silent for a good while and that was the day we realized he was human.

straight up dude, fuk tips. a pizza delivery job aint that bad of a job becuz its kinda easy, speeding around in a beater car and deliverin, but u start being greedy and shit. no one likes that, they dont want to hear that bs, "oh, giv me more money becuz u need to feel sorry becuz i dont make enuf." tough fukin life.
