Excellent. This pizza delivery job will surely provide for
us and our 15 children. I accept and will begin inseminating
you immediately. First, umm... can you tell me how?

i actually found that i made better tips in the middle class
to lower class areas and crappy tips in the rich
neighborhoods. some of the best tips i got came from a
mexican family living in some crappy apartments. they
ordered a lot of pizza, and always tipped good. on one
occasion, they did not have enough extra cash to tip me so
they just gave me a slice and a couple wings.

on rare occasions, customers smoked me out. and my buddy
once got a tip in the form of 2 porno videos.

one time, this lady didn't tip me and she was a bitch too so
i spun my tires in her lawn.

one time, a family accidently tipped me 26 dollars.

once I delivered about 15 pizzas to a church. those
bastards didn't help me carry any of the pizzas in, and then
they stiffed me.

There was one house where the lady never answered the door.
she would just send her kids down because they didn't know
that it was customary to tip.

another one of my delivery friends delivered a pizza to an
old lady who answered the door in her bath robe. her little
dog was jumping up and down trying to get at the pizza. he
lept up and caught the belt on the lady's robe and it opened
up. my friend caught a full frontal shot of this naked old
lady and, unable to speak, just turned around and left. he
was so flustered, he forgot to collect the money.

That's about all the pizza stories i can remember right now.
not like anyone asked but i was like, "wtf" so i shared!

Its Godfathers in Witchita, Kansas where he met some
OG's...thanks to them he could walk 3 kms to work and back
in Crackhouse city doing the graveshift shift. Shit pay -
around $4 an hour, 10-12 hours...got eat to eat there. Lived
macroni cheese and ramen noodles.

In Miami, Florida at the Miami Subs he worked in the drive
by window as order taker, running the fast drive by in the
whole chain in the city but he clawed his way up the
corporate ladder to become a cook. He met Marilyn Mason on a
few occasions who gave flea a copy of his demo tape
(handdone)while he was still with the Spooky Kids at the
drive through who gave him flyers for his live gig..so one
of nicest customers he's had!!! Gave him a free drink and
got a tip

When I was a wee tike, my 13 yo girlfriend Sandra hated the
old lady across the road and called and had her delivered
pizzas, a truckload of cement deposited on her lawn, pest
controls and other little nasty things...

I had a similar encounter as your friend with a naked man
answering the door when I rang his bell when I took on
parttime work selling petrol station discount vouchers for
lubes and tuneups for a local garage, I screamed and ran off
and quit...

A scooter is the most financially viable way of doing it.
Good luck getting insurance for using a motorbike for work
though...

Some guys insure it as a "personal use" bike, then use it
for pizza delivery anyway. You're a bit scuppered if you
need to claim and it's obvious you were using it for work
though.

Also, I don't know about Tuvalu, but most places in the UK
don't tip pizza delivery guys. Mind you, that's usually
because it takes an hour for it to come and it's luke warm
:-/

in the US it's free, fast and hot (if pizza pit still
exists); lots of places give you the pizza free if it's not
there in 30 minutes.

i thought they stopped doing that because delivery bros were
running over nuns and little kids to get to people's homes
on times.
