I know I'm not the norm here, but I never use a service (doordash, ubereats), I call the place directly, and I want the drivers to fight each other when they see my name, pizza delivery, minimum 10 bucks but probably not more than $15.
Sit down and ordef, as a former server, usually 20%, rounded up.

I've never been disappointed by this place. Always solid food for decent prices.

- I tip about 10%, because someone had to prepare and package my meal up... might have taken them away from waiting on another table. I appreciate the effort that goes into making the order right. They usually have a tip jar at the counter where I pick up so I prefer to tip them in cash.
- I don't order pizza to be delivered, but I do door dash. I am a little far out, so I put a good tip on the order so the driver will want to pick up my order and deliver it. Usually 20%, sometimes more. Gas is expensive and I appreciate them bringing my food so I don't have to go out after it.
- This is why your phone has a calculator and you can ignore the suggested percentages and figure out what you are comfortable with. But I start at 20% and go up or down from there, based on the quality of the service. Again, I prefer to do the tip in cash, even if I am paying with a card.

A few dollars or maybe 10% because I used to be a server and appreciated when people tipped on takeout orders, so I try to do the same when I can.
-
Usually 15%
-
20% at least

I mean, what did you get? I know people who hated it; They ate the soup. What you want is the Becherovka with the Pierogi and the Selerowy. Can't go wrong with those.

Is having 30-50 teens from affluent families "just hanging out" good for a community?
Why is their income status worth mentioning?

CCP is basically UPMC's network of pediatricians, so they're massive and have locations all over the Burgh. What I like about the McMurray and Castle Shannon offices is that they were, until very recently, an independent practice called Pediatrics South, and their doctors has all been with the practice for many years. Unfortunately they took a huge financial hit during covid and ended up being bought out by CCP/UPMC, but the doctors and staff mostly stayed the same and continued business as usual with a different name.

Pps had no real solutions for student behaviors and students have figured that out. There is no after school detention. There is no alternative school. There are no expulsions. There is no juvenile detention center. The district frowns upon suspension. It's bad. Real bad. Michael Jackson

If they seem friendly and it is a place I go to frequently and they know me and have a cup I will throw no more than 10% in.

Pizza delivery I really don’t do because the quality places don’t deliver. In that case see number 1. Really any delivery now with Uber eats and the like, I don’t do because the order is rarely correct.

Start at 20% and go up from there. If the server is getting slammed and I know trying their hardest, I will go 30% or so.

I think you can understand how implying they are untrustworthy to her could cause issues if she was in an emergency medical situation in which the attending physician is male. You're unlikely to take what I say into account, but hopefully someone else reading this will, I guess.

Good because the original owner is a douchebag.

I have a 100+ year old house that's about 1800 Sq foot. 2 adults and 2 teenage girls at the moment (oldest daughter at school). I pay about $140 each for gas and electric, $80 for water, and about $65 for garbage. We keep the house at 68 in the summer and between 65-67 in the winter.

An atrociously bad suggestion. It's a good thing people like you aren't in charge of this stuff
