I think it's totally ignorant to expect a tip.
Tips are bonuses and bonuses are earned. To expect somebody who is already paying your wages to give you even more is just blatant greed.
Herein lies the problem. You think tips are bonuses. The bosses of the delivery people use the addition of tips as a reason to not have to pay minimum wage. That is their loophole.

Telling people they are LAZY ASSES is not a good way to promote tipping. We have pizza delivered all the time, yet we're not LAZY ASSES. *Delivery* is an offered service. People who partake of the *delivery service* are not necessarily LAZY ASSES. In fact, many pizza restaurants do not *charge* for delivery, yet offer a $2-$4 discount for people who pick-up/carry-out their orders. In other words, there IS a delivery charge, but it is hidden as a pick-up/carry-out "discount." Americans aren't stupid.
Further, again, calling people LAZY ASSES because they have pizza delivered is in bad form. I might have had sympathy for the situation, but since you insulted people who have people delivered as LAZY ASSES... well, no sympathy now. BTW, I do tip. However, it's insulting to be called a LAZY ASS because the pizza is delivered.
I highly recommend a change of profession if it is at all feasible.

I'm a great tipper........just bring change. I'm not going to give a driver $7 for delivering a pizza.
On a side note, I saw a good restaurant go out of business, and I know it was because of their delivery drivers who were always running the "no change" scam, and eventually people stopped doing business with them. These idiot high school kids thought they were getting over on the world. Like nobody had thought of that before them.:shk:
