<p>Does anyone who has delivered or knows someone who delivers have an idea of how many deliveries occur in an hour? I live in a state that pays minimum wage for deliverers plus tips. Usually the delivery area is only within a few miles of the restaurant, so the entire minimum wage salary is not going to gas. I’m trying to calculate what the average hourly rate would break down to if they go to four houses, or six, if it’s anywhere from $2 to $10 a house, etc. Given that this is not skilled labor, how much should we expect them to make compared to people who work in jobs on the list of the eight lowest paid jobs in America, some of which seem much more labor intensive than delivering food. I think when we talk about fair pay, that actually comparing the job and its pay to other jobs is reasonable. </p>
