Tips for pizza delivery?

I have a Domino's literally one mile from my apartment. It is literally on the same street as me.

I placed a delivery order for two large pizzas. What do you think the tip should be?

And to anyone who has done pizza delivery, why do companies charge such a high delivery fee? $5 in Domino's case, and it doesn't even go to the driver? So insane.

Oh and to anyone who wants to say "why didn't you just pick it up?", stfu. I don't want to leave my apt today. Life is like that sometimes.

Ok, I see this is 3 days old, but I'll respond. I actually have delivered for Dominos. First off, you don't get just one delivery at a time. You get multiple. The driver is responsible for making sure all the deliveries are correct before going out the door. That means all drinks, sauce cups, checking the ticket against what's in the boxes, calling mistakes in the order, ordering a reorder, handling the oven for other drivers when your turn isn't up, and more. It's chaotic
