Do you tip pizza delivery people?


Recommended Posts

I always tip too, like someone said earlier, if the pizza costs ?18, I just give them a ?20 note. I swear Dominoes know I'm a regular take away orderer, they always send different blokes to deliver the pizzas because they know they get a good ti:p:p

I never have. I don't think anyone in uk tips delivery guys.

I might let him keep the change if it's ?1-?2

It's not like they provide a variable service. They either delivery it, or they don't.

edit: i always tip in restaurants, just not delivery guys. It's not like they do much

Well I'm in the UK and I always tip the guy ?1, everyone I know also tips, you must be really tig:huh:uh:

The only reason I tip is because I don't want to find spit in my food the next time I order from the same plac:rofl:fl:

I find tipping for trivial things vulgur. The employers should pay them enough - if they can't earn money without tips then they should find a proper job. However, if I am at a restaurant and the service is helpful and the meal is nice then I will tip as they are going beyond the expected service.

I guess it's a cultural thing, though. In the US tipping is effectively required for people to earn money but here in the UK it isn't like that.

Well where I live Waitresses and bar staff only get like 3 dollars an hour they work for tips. Pizza delivery gets a full wage. So no I usually dont tip, unless they do something above and beyond. I have a Pizza Hut deslivery guy here that always brings Napkins, Peppers, Cheese and wetnaps all bundled in a rubberband. He I always tips 3 dollars. he is the only one I have found that tries to do something extra and deserves the tip

Where do you live?

In the US minimum wage is $5.15 (higher in some states) and very often a waitress/waiter gets paid more then the pizza delivery guy.

Waiters/waitresses & pizza delivery guys are very equal.

The pizza delivery cars most of the time use their transportation method (car) which costs gas, maintenance and such.

Here in Spain almost nobody tips. It's cultural, I think. In here, you only tip someone if you think he or she is doing more than you are paying for (very nice meal, good service, smiles...)

But on the other hand if the order is, for example, 19? you would pay with 20? and give away that 1? - same for pizza people, restaurants, etc.

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
    • AT&T has been spying on US citizens with the NSA for decades.. they just know how to keep it more under wraps.. the evil level is still there.
    • >Improved system sounds when using Windows in dark mode. The story behind that bug would be an interesting one.
