I do not own a pair of dress pants but they called me and gave me very little notice for the interview. So I can either show up in jeans, which I don't think is appropriate for an interview, or a skirt, which I feel may be a bit much for a delivery driver job. Idk, some input would be great! Nice jeans and top, or skirt and heels?

I want something with a lot of tips and a good paycheck... but then again I dont want to deal with the public (waitress) but then again i dont know how i feel about losing gas or miles on my car (delivery driver) and also the delivery driver - i could get like mugged or something cause it's just me alone... but then the job of a waitress is a lot to remember... so what is a better option?? I would also like to work weekdays in the mornings/afternoons and one weekend day.

I'm a college student and I work as a night delivery driver for Jimmy Johns. If you have any tips about staying safe on the job it would be appreciated. People who are only going to comment "get another job" please don't bother. Before you mention it I cannot take the car topper off (sign that you place on roof) when I am out on deliveries.

I am insured with coop young drivers and I am thinking of getting a delivery drivers job, but I don't know if I am insured to deliver and if I phone up will they insure me or do they not cover delivery drivers at all?

I currently work at a grocery store but I hate my job because of two reasons; I make less than minimum wage because I have to pay union dues for a minimum wage job, and because my job is extremely boring (I cashier most of the time). I've already been there for 8 months but I won't get a raise until I've been there for a year, which is a very small 10 cent raise that will only bring me up to $7.29 after union dues. I for sure won't be staying at the grocery store for much longer, but I'm undecided about what kind of job I should try to get as a better job. I'm thinking about applying to become a delivery driver at a pizza place or at Jimmy Johns when I turn 18.

Ok, so I've been trying to find Work as a pizza delivery driver---I was able to find one job delivering pizza--but when I had called my insurance company and told them about the situation--they immediately said "We will not cover any accidents you have while on the job delivering pizzas. Have a good day." So, my question is: What insurance policies do cover you for delivering pizzas?

I want to become a pizza delivery driver, but I want to know how much would you usually get in tips a night? Does the driver actually get to keep the tips made? And how much would the pizza place pay for gas? Like on a busy Saturday how much in tips do you think I would make? BTW, I'm trying to get a job at Pizza Hut and I'm from Miami, FL.

I'm in high school right now, and I'm looking for a decent job that I can do part time. I like to drive a lot, and I found 2 job postings as a pizza delivery driver. I think it's good too because it's mostly night work and I heard that some can make a killing just off of tips. I'm just not so sure though......Any thoughts?
