Ever wonder how much you should give the pizza guy? Here is a fair and balanced way to decide.
Start off with 10% of the order. This is what you give a guy who shows up right on time who is not terribly polite.
If the guy is 10 or more minutes early, or is really polite and helpful, make it 20%.
If the guy is 15 or more minutes late give him nothing, he obviously didn't try.
If it is raining hard, make the tip a minimum of a dollar assuming he is on time.
If it is snowy or icy, give him an extra 5% on top of whatever else he has earned.
This is really important. Never, and I mean never, give the poor guy the next dollar if it is anything less than $.50, that is just insulting. It is actually better to stiff the guy than to give him a few cents, on the theory that you just didn't want to bother with the change, that he didn't actually earn it.
