How much does pizza delivery people make?

yes you can make 24,000....

and then subtract your investment.

customers don't realize they are responsible for compensating the driver for use of their vehicle.

80% of the mileage on my car is used delivering pizza.

therefore, 80% of the cost of my vehicle
and 80% of all repairs and maintenance need to come back to me in tips. that's thousands of dollars a year.
when i don't get tipped, even when compensated for gas by the company, i am paying money out of my own pocket for lazy assholes to get food.

i can't really recommend it. it's ok. but i do not make near the amount of money that i SHOULD be making.

especially comparatively to similar jobs such as UPS drivers and USPS drivers.... ~$15-$21hr and i make ~$10-$14/hr with my subtracted investments.

but then that's not including risk to my vehicle's safety and my safety... i've hit deer while working... i've had accidents while delivering in blizzard's and all-around shitty road conditions/ severe storms )

anyways, i recommend being a waitress/waiter or a bartender over being a delivery driver.

they make more money and their job doesn't cost them money or put their lives in danger.

fuck, i hate bartenders.

$20+ an hour for filling fucking glasses with fucking liquid and walking a few feet.

and they ignore me for giving them a FAIR tip of $0.25 per glass. fair? hell, it's fucking GENEROUS. dicks

I know a friend who is considering this job. Should he take it?

It is 2012 , does 3 bucks even pay for gas to drive to your house ?

bet you get extra toppings like boogers , earwax , dingeberries and extra phlegm in the sauce .

There is no gas allowance. You pay for your gas and not everyone tips, especially black people. They even demand change--to the cent. This is from personal experience. Do not even consider it.
