Another thing. Why do you tip the pizza guy, but the guy who shows up to unload a pallet of ceramic tile/hardwood floor gets nothing? Why don't we tip fedex drivers? Why is it only the pizza guy? He only has to carry a maybe 2 pound box about 30 paces.

That being said, I do tip my pizza guy. Just have no idea as to why.

You tip the restaurant personnel, whether it's in their own B&M or on the road because they're paid significantly lower wages. I don't know what drivers delivering building materials makes, but FedEx/UPS/USPS all do quite well from hourly pay/benefits and use a company truck.

The guy delivering you a 16" pizza is paying almost $4/gallon for gas and additional wear and tear in his own car and working for ~$5/hour.
