EVERY DRIVER AND CUSTOMER NEEDS TO KNOW writes:

This story is gonna help a lot of drivers and customers. I'm a delivery driver and I get a lot of repeat customers, tippers and non-tippers. And then we get those few people that call three times a year and you can't remember if they tip or not. First off, I automatically jump the five dollar tippers to the head of the line. Non-tippers, sorry I make up an excuse that the kitchen is slow or whatever. Your opinion doesn't matter to me or other drivers. I have a list of about 70 customers who do not tip. If I don't recognize an address I check my list to see if they are tippers or not. If they are on my list, you wait at the end of my delivery and I give you few plates, 2 peppers, no Parmesan, a couple napkins, no coupons, and tell them that bags are pre-made for any size pizza you ordered. If you paid for our small cups of ranch at 75 cents each, I personally pick out the least amount of ranch filled cups and I make sure to shake it so it's all over--it'll look like a lot but you don't get that much because it's all over the lid. It's how I screw you over next time. I would advise all drivers to keep a list. Customers who tip know that they just have to purchase one ranch and I toss in about 3 more on the house. Sometimes I have extra pizzas or dessert pizzas or even soda in my car that I give to the tippers on accident. Quoted an hour and a half for delivery? A 10 dollar tip usually gets me places faster. Some customers know this. People should know that some restaurants pay a dollar per delivery. That covers gas, not wear and tear on my car.
One dude actually wore his work shirt from T.G.I. Friday's when he answered the door on a 80.00 dollar order and didn't tip me. Dumbass. You live off of tips, dude. You know how it is. There's only one TGIF for 20 miles. Two weeks later I paid him a visit. He was a waiter I asked for personally. Outstanding service and 75.00 dollars later I drew him a smiley face in the tip section. Don't feel good, does it? I'm just another driver smarter than the average bear....
One guy never tips and his hot girlfriend does. I love the way she smiles at me behind your back. One day she ain't gonna have money and you ain't going to be there, and I do take other means of payment.
