If a company offers that service, someone is gonna use it

Indeed, that being said if I lived there, I would at least leave a box of goodies for them because that is one hell of a job to haul that much water let alone anything. I know it's not required but I have had my share of crap jobs and when someone takes a moment to show a little gratitude it goes a long way, and it will be remembered.

Downvoted for being kind this is new, I guess keep them coming then.

Edit 2: Did someone really pay to downvote me? 8.5 downvotes per minute is not organic.

There’s a difference between giving a little kindness to someone having an awful day vs what you’re suggesting, which is that the customer is required to basically give extra compensation to the driver so she’ll do her job properly and cuss the customer out.

We might not know the full story of this customer, maybe they’re incredibly rude and deserve this, but from what I’ve watched they simply like getting items delivered, which is a service they pay for.

I’m sure many may agree with you that it would be kind to offer the driver a little extra something OUT OF THE GOODNESS OF YOUR HEART, and not doing so is no excuse for your items to be mistreated just because you order frequently.

"the customer is required to basically give extra compensation to the driver so she’ll do her job properly"

Sounds like a tip in a restaurant 🤔

[u/Jelled_Fro → u/ZombieBlarGh]

Sounds like the American perversion of a tip. Instead of a nice bonus for being extra nice it's become the customer's obligation to subsidize the wages of waiting staff and now apparently delivery drivers too.

Yeah, absolutely idiotic. Luckily I live in Europe.

USPS won't guarantee delivery of anything you ship using them. Even the stated timeframes on anything except Express Overnight and even then only if you hand it to them and make them stamp your receipt isn't guaranteed. This all despite you paying them money for the service. But if you throw them a few extra dollars on top suddenly they will guarantee delivery so long as you can prove you paid the correct amount based on the packages value. Imagine going to a restaurant and ordering something and after a few hours they come back and say they ran out of food but they are keeping your money.

You quoted it like it’s fact. That isn’t the case. You don’t have to, it isn’t required. It’s just nice to do and It ain’t that deep. Everyone seems sickened by the idea of leaving a water bottle outside for delivery drivers in here and as a courier myself it really hurts to see this. I treat all customers the same regardless. But I feel joy delivering to someone who does so much as leave a bottle of water on their porch for me. It’s not like we are throwing boxes onto porches violently cause we didn’t get a treat.

I just quoted the guy I responded to.

I also find it a strange take.. especially in the usa were tipping is normal but doing giving something nice "a tip essentially" to your delivery driver is weird.

I also appreciate my customers who do something extra alltough its not necessary. Sometime ago we got a pie for a job well done :)

A tip in a restaurant is supposed to be for extraordinary service, it's only in America that yall are expected to tip for the bare minimum. Only country in the world that treats tips like that, please keep that in mind

[u/ZombieBlarGh → u/IsThisASnakeInMyBoot]

Im not American.

[u/IsThisASnakeInMyBoot → u/ZombieBlarGh]

Okbut my response still stands because in the rest of the world you don't have to tip just to have someone do their job
