Why are there so many “news” articles now based entirely around some random person’s tweet or TikTok video? Today’s journalists are lazy as hell.
You never know if these things are staged, but in this case I don’t care - I am SICK of what has become a tip-entitled society...and so I rarely tip, and do not tip in Blue states.
I make my own.
Which is delicious, BTW.
Problem solved.
If someone tips a delivery driver it is for the delivery, it shouldn’t have anything to do with whether the meal delivered was $15.00 or $60.00
Probably the guys’d last day on the job
I delivered pizza while in college. Low pay, I was paid by my employer for each delivery. A tip was “extra” income and sincerely appreciated. The customer got a “thank you” whether they tipped me or not
Because when business when down, I was sent home. No deliveries, no work. No work, no pay
Entitled immature kids who are doing a disservice to their employer. I blame the parents
I would complain to both the restaurant and to Door Dash, to alert them that one of their drivers was this rude.
If I can’t be guaranteed this driver would never bring another one of my orders, I would just stop doing business with that restaurant.
If a delivery driver ever made such remarks to me, I would presume he was casing my home for a future robbery.
Once he complained I’d ask for my tip back and never order from there again.
With that being said,$5 would be our tip.
Door Dash drivers only earnings is the tip. I agree the DD driver should not be rude but instead make a note to not deliver to the same address again.
I’m glad to tip anyone who delivers food to me - it’s a service and I appreciate it. But 25% is more than fair and more than generous. If this ingrate doesn’t like it, he should try finding a job which pays him the kind of salary he expects.
As soon as you complain you get nothing.
Life can be a lot better if you can limit unnecessary interactions with strangers in society. Sometimes friemds and family too.
I don’t do food or grocery deliveries. Just normal packages. I like my mail carrier, she’s competent and nice.
It is rare that I tip more than 15%. Now there are tip jars at bbq drivethroughs. Ridiculous.

Here’s a tip. Give me that 5 bucks back and gtfo my porch.
Should have made a point of calling his boss to tell him his delivery BOY was rude and don’t ever send him to my house again.
I pay 20% on the cost pre-tax and all the fees. And in a restaurant, I only pay a tip on the cost only of the meal only - never tip tax.
Considering the problems it seems to bring, I’d think it might be best to declare there would be no tipping. I always eat in or get it carryout, in my case. There is of course, a third solution that would put the skids to the tipping controversy & that is to make all pizza stores carryout or eat-in; no deliveries.
Is pizza delivery supposed to be priced so it is a lifetime career decision? I would think not; it never used to be.
Age of entitlement. These are the people voting for Communists to take money from others and give it to them in the form of "free" college, healthcare etc.
