i'm gonna need Bill Krozby and mmq's input here
I never really ordered pizza before because I usually just went to wherever I was eating to get the food. But recently I have been ordering food from a pizza place down the street, because they have free delivery if your order is over a certain amount, and pretty much every single time I order food I am in desperate need of calories so with the food I get it just barely meets the minimum for free delivery.
Anyways the place is like a 10 minute walk away. That's like a straight up 10 minutes too, not like a "15 minutes" masquerading as 10 minutes or anything like that. The only reason I don't walk there myself is because I usually look like a straight up weirdo at these times and also I'm not trying to talk to anyone that I don't absolutely need to. But basically the place is like right there.
So normally if I had to order a pizza I would probably just tip the driver like $3-5, like hopefully it would work out so the total was like $16.55 and so I can just hand them a 20 be done with it. That's what I've been doing recently, but I realized the total was a little more than I thought it was so I've been tipping them like $1. So what do you all think?

5 dollars is my standard tip for delivery. The company already takes a delivery fee and pays them minimum wage. :/

I round up, like you said. If its a 16 something order I round to 20, if it is 18 I might go to 23 ... but we also have pretty cheap gas prices. I teach my kids to add approximately 15%, then round.

I almost always order from dominoes which is a 6-7 minute drive away and I pretty much always tip about $3-4 which I think is appropriate for 10 minutes of their time. I'm admittedly cheap so if my order is $15.xx or $20.xx I will buy a smaller item like a ranch sauce or a soda to make it more like $16.xx or $21.xx and I'll pay $20.00 or $25.00 respectively.

fair, but its still more 'complicated' than businesses just charging a little extra and then paying their employees a fairer wage tho.

Oh I agree completely. Customers being expected to cover part of a businesse's employee wages so the owners can save money has always seemed off to me.
I suppose it's main advantage is putting more incentive on the employee to do a better job or whatever but I still think the concept of expected tips is sort of absurd. Why should I have to feel guilty if I don't wanna give away free money that I don't have to, ya know?
