I worked minimum wage jobs for years and managed to do quite well, surely they can do the same.
It appears some drivers clear $500-$600 a week and $40,000 a year. Who's to say how much of that delivery charge they actually earn, but I don't see the owners themselves getting it. I know much of it is paid in gas and repairs, but again how much gas is used for such a short trip?

Might be different down here but 9 times out of 10 the delivery charge goes to the company, not the driver and it is usually explicitly stated so on the receipt. Just something to consider for non-tippers of delivery drivers.
