The fact that it works just like waitstaff in restaurants (which is the first tipped job that comes to mind for the vast majority of people) makes it seem reasonable to me. Either way, though, they didn't do as the OP said they did > they used to withhold the total tips out of a delivery drivers base compensation so essentially taking the tips for themselves The driver's base pay was something like $1 or $2. They did not take tips out of that.
