MagickAngel tells us more.
OP here! I'm really surprised this was published! Let me clear up a few things. I do use my own car and I make less than minimum wage here in Michigan as a driver. I was actually in an accident because I was delivering last month so my tips have been going towards repairing my car. I put about $20 in gas in my car a day and the opening shift starts at 11 AM. I was not the closest place to my ex, in fact it's a 20 min drive to where he was working when he called and asked me to bring him pizza since he couldn't leave the garage he works at. He knows I am the opening driver right now because I hadn't replaced my headlight after the crash yet. The 34 cents was the left over change after I gave him back his cash. We broke up just over a month ago after 2 and a half years living together

If you're that upset with someone, why would you order pizza from the place they work at?
She didn't order the pizza, her ex did
I know, I was just speaking in general terms :)
Well we don't know why they broke up in the first place... He probably just needed a reason to see her... And as far as the 34 cent tip... That's probably all the money he had... Which is probably the reason they are now "ex"
Maybe because he wanted her to be hurt/annoyed that she had to go to his house?
Maybe she works at the closest one or they have good pizza. Sorry, OP. That was a low move on his part.
Maybe so he could give his ex a shit tip as a final **** you, or he could just like the food there.
Probably to be spiteful
He may have just not have known that she would be the one to deliver him his pizza.

Better than some people tip
better than no tip
I agree! A few of those tips still buys you a coffee! I'm a server and although I don't enjoy little tips, they add up!
Id honestly rather get no tip, at least it could seem more like they were just trying to scrape enough money together for some pizza, but for some reason a tip like that just seems so much more degrading. But yeah anyway, chances are the person spent 2 to 3 times as much as that in gas for the trip assuming it was their own car, and if it was their own, much more in wear and tear on the car
Did you just compare a service tip to making use of a personal vehicle? It's only 6:30am here, but I think that's enough internet for me today.
What are delivery drivers paid in the states? And do you have to use your own vehicle?
And how is this relevant?
Because where I am, a tip is just an added bonus as we don't have a "server" wage so tips aren't as important. I'm just curious if delivery people get paid enough regardless to not have to rely on the tips. I think a server wage should be illegal btw. It shouldn't be up to the customer to ensure you make a decent wage. It should be up to the employer. Makes no sense to me. A tip should be above and beyond, and based on service provided in my opinion.
I think drivers get min wage and a negligible amount of money for using their vehicles, but depending on the drivers fuel efficiency and the delivery radius it's not unlikely that they could end up with a profit below minimum wage. Also drivers have to put up with a lot of shit that normal servers don't.
It's different from state to state. In California (at least where I had worked) drivers get paid minimum wage and tips are added on top. I know in other states people in the food service industry are paid below minimum with the expectation that tips will make up the difference. Most people use their own vehicles and if you're delivering for a long time tips don't tend to make up for the long-term maintenance costs of starting and stopping your car 20 times a day.
Just a guess, he might have been naked, as the 34 cent tip may be referring to Rule 34.

Do you know how much of a reach that is? It's pathetic.

Yeah thats way too much of a reach man. It's obvious that 34 cents = 3+4=7, seven is made up of five letters, five rhymes with wife, so he just wanted to get married. GEEZ GET THE HINT OP
That is really immature of him, although since I am from a country where there are no tips, tips really don't make sense for me. Why should I pay the employees? Shouldn't that be the employers job?
You expected a decent tip or one at all from your recently made ex? Ydi what are you complaining for? Lol get over it
