For both waiters and pizza delivery drivers, generally 20% plus whatever is necessary to round up to the next dollar. In any event, no less than $2.

There was a time in my life when I delivered pizzas, and I found that the best tippers were usually either college students or folks in middle-class neighborhoods. People in the upper-middle-class and expensive neighborhoods usually tipped below average to average at best.

That doesn't surprise me. They most likely don't know what it's like to have to live off of what a server makes.

I tend to tip 20%, or 10% if they piss me off. And it takes a lot to piss me off.

My attitude is: If I can't afford to tip, then I can afford to cook for myself.
