Well, considering we're on a first-name basis this month, I think if he comes back again soon I will give him $20.

I gave them $20 since they delivered some very large and heavy packages in the past three months to my house.

Nope, in the 3.5 years I've lived in my house, I've never met the UPS person. Although he does send us a card subtely asking for a tip.

If he ever rang my bell before leaving the packages, or didn't leave them on my front steps in inclement weather, maybe I would consider it. Chat Icon

I'm originally from upstate and the tipping thing was new to me, too. Could it be a tri-state area thing? Chat Icon
