Because I deliver pizzas; how much do you tip?
or are you those asshole kids that look at the credit card ticket and just sign n smile, or the lady with the husband who can't walk who says she'll bring $2 by the restaurant if I give her my name?
Like 7 dollars. I get my pizza 50% off though because I work there. Also they are my bros so I hook it up

Because I deliver pizzas; how much do you tip?
i am a 'terrible' tipper. although i'm fully aware of what i'm doing, i can never seem to stop myself from 'over tipping'. perhaps to some i come across as naive or stupid, but i couldn't be more conscious of the situation. i know the popular percentages through and through and can do the calculations, but i prefer to use a more personalized and compassionate scale of measure. this means whatever 'feels' right is what i leave.
i've been ordering pizza and cheesecakes for my brother on a regular basis, and usually leave the delivery guy anywhere from 3-5$ on bills ranging from 7 to 10 bucks. some places tack on a few dollars to the base charge to cover, or in some way compensate, for a possible lack of tip etc... (kind of a little necessary secret). anyway i don't sweat it, it's just money.
Two bucks. I order about 10 dollars worth of food, so I don't feel bad on a 20% tip especially since it's not that far anyway.
i don't see the point in tipping when people act like it's mandatory
i've never ordered pizza by delivery before, i've always gone to get it myself or eaten in at a pizzeria befuddlement
though, at a typical restaurant, the minimum amount i tip is $3, unless i ordered practically nothing. i usually go by the 10% rule if the bill was high enough for 10% to be more than $3. if not, then $3 it is.
I hand them a twenty when the pizza man charges me 15 something dollars. I intentionally say "Hey, just take the change, man" when they're in the midst of calculating the change. I wonder if it slightly pisses them off or something. 5thgrade;
I forgot to tip last time I ordered pizza online :(
but that is what I do. I tip via the website since I never have cash on me. I hope they at least know I tipped and don't think I am a jerk. akudood;

wow. '10% rule'? sounds like a lipstick way of saying i'm a cheap fucking bastard.

or "i don't have much money, sorry"
by the way, the rule works as "at least 10% of the bill," not exactly 10%. if the bill ends up being $50, i'm probably not going to only tip $5...but it also highly depends on whether the waiter/waitress was any good or not. it's just what i grew up around.

It doesn't, they are only pretending to count your change waiting for you to say keep the change.
i never get pizza delivered
3 bucks or 20%. Whichever is more.
I never get pizza.
But if my meal is $6 or below I tip $1.50, if it's $6 to $10 I tip $3.
I don't think I've ever had a meal that cost more than $10.

Most people who get tips make below minimum wage specifically because they make tips.

well in my view it kinda is, we have free delivery, but I'm the fuck wasting gas, I need it to pay for gas. The restaurant only compensates $1 per delivery, and that's not cutting it when I drive all the way across town.
I'm doing you a service, it would be nice to tip.
I always tip $5 personally, without the party or group I'm in. It's my personal appreciation of their hard work. If I'm with friends or family, altogether the staff helping us will make around $30 in tips. We believe these people have worked very hard, and they deserve a little boost.
Pizza delivery, I tip $10. Driving all over town in a time limit, that has to be hard. Sometimes they'll get more than cash, though. yes;

your pizza men must hate you
when i eat in stores i tip though
15% rounded to the nearest dollar on the whole bill. I'll add or subtract based on performance, but usually it stays around 15%.
I thought that was the norm.
I'll estimate 20%, and whatever is the closest to that I (over or under) I can make with the denominations I have on hand is what you get. Sometimes I'll tip more like 25% if I really appreciated it. If they're a dipshit, they won't get anything.

One time I left no tip for a $140 bill. The guy was a real dick.
Once I delivered food because a friend called and told me her boss needed someone to cover a shift and no one else there had a car.
I got a $20 dollar tip from one person.

i'm o
ne of the few servers at my place who
never requests that management add an automatic 18% gratuity (before tax) to bills of 'large' parties. the servers who do are either terrible at their craft, or have a corrupt view of humanity, including themselves. i am confident in the service i provide and come from a culture where generosity cannot be impressed, but must be earned.
