As far as I know, the delivery people pay for their own fuel.

I work at two different pizza places right now. It is a good job for a 17 year old like me and is easy and you don't have to deal with people as much as a retail job. I make a decent amount of money delivering and average about $11-14 an hour depending on the day.

ghey. i should ride my bike lol. i race bmx so i can do 50km/h or so if needed. then again, thats probably not good idea

oh rly....is that including tips? and do you pay for your gas, im assuming so, thats what ive been told by alot of people

Yeah that's including tips and I pay for my own gas. It ***** delivering with a V8 gas guzzler. I want to find a cheap Toyota 4-cylinder for a couple hundred so I save money on gas in the long run.

i deliver. it kinda ***** though.

i make $5.25 + tips, and each delivery i get $1 for gas. but really, the $1 doesnt even cut it anymore. i basically work 3 nights a week to make 2 nights worth of money, because the other night is all gas money. (12 mpg city)

ive made anywhere from like $20 in tips in 5 hours to $97 in 5 hours... not very reliable but yeah... i want a job at costco //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

ya no doubt. i drive a v6 grand prix, so its not horrible on gas, but it would be nice to have a little 4 banger. i only live in a town of 10000 so its not huge, so 5 bucks would get me a few deliveried probably...maybe, if i did my calculations correctly lol.

poll added. preferable only vote if you have actually worked as a delivery boy. accuracy ftw

At my shop the drivers get $.50 per delivery to cover gas.

Which most of the time doesnt cover it.

If you have a little 4 banger thats good on has its great.

my pops ( driver) has had to drive the burban around for deliverys while his car was in the shop. It likes gas //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

He can eaisly make $100+ a day in tips.

what kind of area do u live in? is it a upper class or just a reg. surburban or a city type?

 

[bumpin_blazer 5,000+ posts]

i did delivery here for 3 months over the summer 6 years ago. it was cool as gas was only like a 1.19 then lol so getting that $1.00 per delivery covered it. Plus I only delivered near where I live and the neighborhood's are upper class so I made good tips. Some slumber party gave me a 42 dollar tip once. nowaday's with gas being 3 bucks a gallon, unless you drive a hybrid or something like that not worth it IMO.

You can claim you gas at the end of the year

I personally never delievered Piazza, but however have had a few friends do it and it was worth it back in the day, but like someone else said here gas was a lot cheaper, like 1.20 or something low like that. This was like 7 years ago. But I do remember some of those guys pulling out wads of bills out there pockets saying that they made that in one night in just tips. But that was a good night. Sometimes it would be like 10 bucks. So on that note, if you live in a good area and think peeps would tip good, then do it, but more than likely you will be putting your tips straight into the car, not to mention all the strain on the car from the city miles. So basically at the end of the night, your working just a min. wage job. I say if your young and can trust the car and dont give a **** about miles and the price of gas then go for it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Being a delivery boy is really lame,esp for a pizzaria

Yeah, but those one dollar bills were good for going to the tittie bars. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
