there's a reason they're rich....

I'd be shocked if more than 10% of pizza delivery drivers carry special Insurance.

there's a whole, quite long thread on tipping somewhere haha. just for the record, despite being a delivery driver that made a lot of money in hs/college summers due to tips...i still think the tipping system is retarded.

Inheritance. I've seen a lot of people that come from money that don't tip because they've never had to work for it.

One time a guy tells me to step inside his creepy apartment and proceeds to close the door when I step in. Place smelled like ass. Then he starts telling me about his cats and showing them to me. Takes about 5 min. to get the money and no tip. This was in my Si though...I don't think he saw my car

If I was driving a lambo or geo metro dude was still weird and cheap lol. I am actually at work now typing this.

You actually make pretty good money on a busy day.

dumb move. as a delivery driver of 3 years, I would never step inside a residence, even in the nice neighborhoods.
