I deliver pizzas for Papa John's , also ! We have several drivers who bring home over $100.00 per night in tips and reimbursements . We do get some reimbursebent pay ! A driver can claim mileage on their taxes as long as they subtract the reimbursements from the federal mileage pay . I came out good in 2014 on my tax return . We do have long runs , but not 20 miles up a customer . The furthest is about 8 miles out . We do have bad nights at times . Overall , we do quite well ! I imagine that this driver did not hustle enough , got lost on deliveries , stopped at stores and restaurants up get snacks and food , and spent much too much money . I have been at the Patrick Street Papa John's for nearly 10 years now . Some have been here longer than me . Some of the area competitors pay more on the hour , but the drivers don't seem to make as much money as we do . As a matter of fact , we have current drivers who formerly worked for our competitors .
As far as the bonus money goes a for signing up as a driver , I really don't know about the accuracy of their claims . I started working for the company during a time period when this bonus money was not offered . I do know that several drivers missed out on the bonus money because they quit before the deadline . One or two came back to work again - expecting to get their bonus undeservedly .
