    I must be the only guy who doesn't tip the pizza guy, most places now charges like atleast a $2 delivery fee so to me that's a tip.

      The delivery fee doesn't go to the driver. EDIT: Well I guess I can't say that with 100% certainty, but that's how it used to be anyways.

          Because it's contradicting. It's basically complaining about complainers. I could easily tell you not to read what I have to say if you don't like me giving my opinion. There's 3 opinions to everything(agree, disagree, and undecided or the ones who don't care). Just because it's not what you want to hear doesn't give me any less of a right to state my thoughts.

            I hate tipping people

            This is why I prefer to do things myself. I haven't ordered a pizza since I was in high school.

                Dwight Schrute from The Office agrees with you guys.
                Why tip someone for a job I'm capable of doing myself? I can deliver food. I can drive a taxi. I can, and do, cut my own hair. I did however, tip my urologist, because I am unable to pulverize my own kidney stones.

                    Those don't go to the driver. $2 is a cheap tip, btw.

                    Just so you know, that driver hates you and if you order from the same place again, s/he's doing something to your food.

                      It depends on the bill. If I order a pizza and the bill is $10 (usually the minimum for delivery) I would tip $2 since that is 20%. If I'm ordering a lot of food and the bill is higher I will tip more.

                        Ah, good point. I don't remember the last time I ordered pizza and it was only $10, though. Mostly because it generally involves hanging out with friends or getting it at work for a bunch of people.

                          I ordered pizza online during the superbowl, just 1 pizza. I wasn't sure of the tipping protocol so I just put $4, apparently that's a pretty decent tip for a pizza guy? He made sure to thank me for it when he arrived, although I suppose he was just being polite. Seemed like a nice kid, but he ruined the score of the game!!! (my all time biggest pet peeve, been discussed here often lol)

                            He did not earn that tip if he spoiled the score for you. I'm generally a great tipper, but I would pull my tip if that happened.

                            Full disclosure: I probably would not. I'd probably just say "Hey man, why'd you have to go and do that? You dick!" and we'd laugh and I'd die a bit inside.

                              He didn't reveal the final, all he said was "last I heard was 7-0 GB", I hadn't started watching yet but the game was still early at that point, so all he really ruined was who scored first lol. Plus it was an online purchase so my tip was already set.

                                I see. I wouldn't have been nearly as pissed then, but I wouldn't be watching the Super Bowl on delay.
