30,000+ deliveries 6 1/2 years nightshift with Dominos in the 90s.
$5 today would be a very good tip. $3 a decent tip.
Back then $2 was a decent tip. $1 was ave (at best).
Worst tippers: College kids (espec guys) and overtly religious people with their porches and windows decked out with pictures of The Lord.
Best tippers: Gays all the way around and guys staying at hotels/motels. Espec if the guy is alone is often even better. I guess they related.
Never got mugged. Did have a scrap or two. Falls were actually a way bigger concern. Had a few (2-3) bad falls and many light falls.
In the beginning I "hustled" which was disaster waiting to happen. In the end I was the slowest but never made mistakes which managers love.
