From what I understand the jobs that gets tips in restaurants get about $3 base pay and then depending on how much u earn from tips it can be really low or really high?
Delivery drivers typically make minimum wage, and they usually get a base commission of $1 or so per house. The tips come from the customers so a driver can make decent money. Keep in mind that drivers are responsible for gas and all of the repairs for their vehicles-and delivering puts a lot of wear and tear on the car. You can make good money or not so good, depending on the area.
Waitstaff where I live get paid something like $2.13 an hour-so they rely completely on tips for their income.
how much can Pizza Hut delivery person earn if you combine tips?
or Pizza Hut waiter with tips.
Not much, considering the wear and tear on your own car. If this is the only job you can get, set aside some of your gross income for the car. At the very least you will need brakes sooner.
Do they give you a gas allowance?
Generally jobs that involve driving your own car as part of the work are not good jobs.
Just sayin'
Being a waiter there probably does not pay much either, but it's a regular job, your paycheck is yours, you don't have to split it with your car.

Reason: waiter is better than delivery
>>The only delivery jobs worthwhile are the ones where drivers deliver at least an average of 4 deliveries per hour and higher. The real money is made on tips, but if you ain't driving, you ain’t making money. Most of the 'big3' stores don’t allow 'doubles' or higher any more, (multiple deliveries per run) so delivering at least 4 pies per hour is difficult due to overstaffing of drivers.
What are the employer company names that allows this?
If you're in a high crime area with a lot of poverty I wouldn't do it not to mention you probably don't get many tips in that type of area anyway. Also you tear up your car as a delivery driver so I would go buy an old $1,000.00 car somewhere that still runs if I was going to get into delivering pizza. I would never use a nice car to deliver pizza unless you're in a really affluent area where all the streets are kept immaculate.
How much money you make delivering pizza depends on a couple things. The biggest is how much effort you put into it. To make good tips you need to deliver a lot of pizza. If there are 2 or 3 newer orders on the delivery rack going in the same general direction as the oldest order on the rack, you take them with you. If there is an order going the same direction as you are going, but is several miles further out, you leave it on the rack and let another driver spend 40 minutes delivering it. After a while you get to know which repeat customers tip well. You make sure to grab those orders even if they are in a different direction. It helps if you have no problem speeding. If the light has not been red for more than a few seconds by the time you get to the intersection, you blast on thru. It helps if you work all the way to closing. You get stuck doing most of the store cleaning, but you also get all of the late nite deliveries. It really helps if you are willing to stop by the liquor store for the customer. If you do these types of things you can make 50 to 150 dollars a night in tips. If you follow all of the store's rules you will make 10 to 20 dollars a nite in tips.
The quality of the neighborhood is so critical. Good area, 2.5 deliveries per hour=14 per hour.
