I used to work as a pizza delivery guy. Back when Domino’s was a 30 minutes or free business. I can believe how many times I got stiffed. One A$$hole gave me a nickel tip and thought it was funny.
The customers have no pizza savvy. How could they know it was not up to snuff? and if it is not the right pizza is on the next car out anyway, so you keep the bad pizza and complain so they bring you another pizza.
I used to keep 5 singles handy, if the guy was 30 min instead of 20 min I would tip 3 instead unless the pizza was obviously still hot.
Pizza delivery is one job I wouldn’t have. Between robbers and idiots like this McNeil guy, I’d say it’s a downright dangerous profession.
God bless those who make these deliveries.
And a pox on McNeil. Guess he thought he was being a big macho guy by punching out the delivery man. Too bad there are no special criminal punishments for ignorant jerks.
but, given the type of people who work in restaurants these days, i EAT IN! ALL THE TIME!
When I delivered pizza there was one stoner house that was out of the way. They never tipped so I never delivered a hot pizza.
It is amazing how cold a pizza can get just sitting in my car with the box open while other customers are taking priority.
Chicago enough said. Not one of the friendliest place, I sure wish my brother would move.
I understand the assault charge but not sure I understand the felony robbery. He forced the delivery man to return the price of the pizza but returned the pizza (now worthless, of course). Is $20 enough to make it a felony?
Time for a "pizza summit"? (snicker)
Never play card with a guy named Doc
Never deliver a meat lovers pizza to a guy named Shaver.
what punks.
Man, that’s crazy. I always tip our delivery people at least $5.00, as a rule, but if we order more than $20.00, the tip goes up.
When we go out to eat, we always tip at least 30%, if not more. We usually tip more when we’ve heard a customer treat our server like crap.
Tips are stupid. Get a paying job.
Dave Ramsey advises people who are trying to get out of debt to take on a pizza delivery job as a second job. So we always tip a minimum of $5.
Not tipping = spit on your pizza the next time you order.
Just wait til the non-tippers get on here and complain and moan that they shouldn’t have to pay for service, that the pizza restuarants should pay their drivers a better wage, and then state that they only eat at pizza buffets because they don’t like to give someone a tip.
I delivered pizzas for a while a few years back. Our store charged a “delivery fee” that basically went to the deliveryman. That way, even if you stiffed the deliverer, you were still tipping him.
I delivered pizza for roughly four years. During that time I received exactly 1 tip from a person....hmmm...how should I diplomatically phrase this....not of European, Asian, or Hispanic decent. And the only reason I received that 1 tip was because the girl recognized me from high school. And judging from the guys name “Shaver” I imagine he is also not of European, Asian, or Hispanic decent.
