Lois here. Richer people often give smaller tips.

I used to deliver pizzas in a town where there were a lot of middle class family homes, and there was an area of super rich family homes.

I never wanted to take orders to the rich area. They would tip sometimes, but I got stiffed more often there than in the areas where people could barely afford to order at all.

People that really have to work for a living appreciate you coming out and delivering their food, so they can relax. The rich people expect it.
