According to the website TipthePizzaGuy.com, a lot of people don't realize that the delivery charge added to many pizza orders is not a tip and does not actually go to the driver. It's a common—and totally innocent—mistake to make, and one that Lauren Ledford seems to have made on a recent order from Postmates.

She accidentally stiffed a pizza guy four bucks—and he responded by sending her a terrifying handwritten note: four pages of rage, threats, and nasty names.
quote:

"Please next time, tip your delivery driver. And if it turns out that delivery driver is me again, and you do not tip yet again, I'm probably going to rob you,. . . I'm only joking, but not really. Don't risk it though. Who knows what a disgruntled delivery driver who can't afford to eat that day is capable of."


Obviously not working his way through med school.

Pizza guys really need to start writing these stupid letters to their bosses who put a delivery charge on pizzas. That’s who their beef should be with. And, I’m sure there’s some entitled driver out there that thinks you should tip 20% on top of the total including the delivery charge. Screw that, I’ll round up a few bucks and that’s probably it. What if restaurants charged a “server charge” that didn’t go to the actual servers, and you were expected to tip on top of that?

It's not as bad as it looks. I wish she'd posted the other two pages. The stuff about wanting to be a girl so he could shake his titties for drug money was nice, but I'd love to see the pages with the curses and insults.

I delivered for a while, didn't expect 100% tip rate. I waited tables before. When you don't do nearly as much and get 30 deliveries a night instead of 15 tables max, it isn't a big deal. I was never angry at low tips or being stiffed. Just wanted to get more deliveries. We also got a dollar out of the delivery charge though.

So you want a service, but are too cheap to actually pay for it.

I don't tip delivery drivers because they make at least minimum wage - around $5/hour more than servers.

End of story.

If people stop tipping on top of the delivery charge, the drivers will not make enough to maintain the job. If pizza places lose all their drivers, they’ll lose delivery business. They’ll have to remove the delivery charge

Apparently some people are not only too lazy and stupid to go get their pizza but they're too poor to tip

OT ballers are diminishing in large numbers

All this is true. Plus the government allows the restaurant to pay servers and drivers less than minimum wage because of the tipping expectation.

Apparently pretty hard if he thinks women bleed out of their asses for a week every month.
