Papa John's Pizza - Price Discrepency

Posted by SteveWiginowski on 2012-10-31:

When you say that he expected one, it sounds like he expected a tip, which would be in addition to a delivery fee (if charged for it, which some places don't do). Tips, though, are different. Much like when you eat at a restaurant, the price on the menu may be correct, but a tip is expected (although not required).

Yeah,sounds like you're confusing the delivery fee with a tip. Every pizza joint I order from specifies that the DF is not a tip. I don't understand exactly the purpose of it, unless it's to help reimburse the drivers for gas and mileage, but if my delivery person told me they "expected" a tip, I'd probably tell them where they could stick their expectations.

I can understand that deliver drivers could very well use the tips, but asking straight out for a tip or charging one automatically, is pretty bold! If someone were to do that for me, i probably would not tip them anything. I usually leave a 3-5 dollar tip on a 20 dollar order, especially if im broke, sometimes 10 dollars...depends on the order, and how nice the person is. Want a tip? earn it.
