They looked like they were in shock....maybe people don't do this around here (connecticut??).

But still....no thank you or anything. Chat Icon I'm mad.

That is strange.

I tipped mine this morning and the one riding on the back of the truck hugged me...

Same thing happened to me when I tipped our UPS guy. I gave him $100 (for last year and this year...last year I forgot to tip him)...he had a really strange reaction....I wanted to grab it back out of his hands Chat Icon

That sux! I gave our garbage men each a case of beer this morning and they were really excited. Said they couldn't wait to get home and crack it open.

I just don't understand how you can hand someone a card/gift and not at least say "thank you" in return. Strange! Chat Icon
