in total over the course of 11 deliveries, she received $13 in cash tips and $42.29 in credit card tips, averaging at $5.03 a tip per delivery.

She concluded the TikTok by saying: "Its not terrible for a Monday, but it could be better - but its not terrible!"

The video has gone viral on TikTok with more than 750,000 views, 57,000 likes and 8,000 comments.

A lot of people in the comment section expressed their shock at the amount Allison made on tip and the number of customers who did not leave her a tip.

If I can add some commentary, $3 tip for delivery is standard, proven by Dominos $3 tip to you if you deliver yourself (i.e., pick up):

The pizza companies should pay the drivers so they don't need to be tipped . Tipping is stupid and I wish it never got invented

That $3 just replaces the delivery fee, not a tip

and yes places should pay their people a living wage. But thats obviously not going to happen the way this country is now

Well it's fine. I only go to restaurants if someone else is paying

I extremely rarely order pizza but when I do, I tip 5 bucks, even though I don't like it

I mean, depending on how far apart all those deliveries are, and where she lives (some places will pay the delivery drivers a lower wage, on the expectation tips will cover it)

Making $55 in tips could mean she may have made $70 that day. And like she isn't even saying it's bad, just that it's a bit of a slow day. Nobody is suggesting she won't be able to pay rent because of this.

I have to disagree. She seemed mostly cheerful. She even ended the video saying it wasnt that bad of a night. Even after getting zero tips, she cheerfully said, but thats ok, it happens!

At no point did she complain nor did she ever express that the tips were too low, even when receiving no tip at all.

Did you even watch her video or are you just assuming that since the article comes off as whiny, clickbait garbage that the girl herself was acting entitled?

$20 / hour is wage, mileage, and tips combined.

As a former pizza driver 60 bucks on 11 deliveries on a monday is a monday.

Outside of football season we were always fucking dead on mondays. There would be two of a use fighting over like 3-4 deliveries an hour.

Would be lucky to make 20 bucks and we were one of the busier pizza huts.

Wanting companies to pay drivers and servers is a great idea but then youre gonna be paying close to $20 for a burger and $40+ for a pizza delivery

I had no idea you're supposed to tip for product deliveries.

They do, at least when i did. I got paid the same hourly as inside workers and got my gas money paid back per delivery.

tips were mostly a cultural thing.

You mean the prices you'd be paying to Doordash/GrubHub? Yeah I don't think people would give as much of a fuck as you think.

I don't know where you guys live, but pizza delivery here gets paid much more than minimum wage, and with tips like that could be hitting decent money for something that teenagers can do.

It's not at all the same as waitstaff that often gets paid like 2$ an hour & have to live off tips.

Ordering delivery already costs this much.
