Pizza delivery guy didn't accept my tip. Was he trying to send a message?

278 20 December 29, 2010 at 07:52 PM in Chat
I was visiting San Francisco recently and ordered a pizza and salad from a local restaurant. The delivery guy was in his mid 40's. I only tried to tip him a dollar, but he just said no thanks. I said are you sure, and he declined the tip again. He was friendly and respectful about it. After he left, I started to think that I offered too small of a tip. The bill was around $20, and I just gave my normal Domino's tip. I was thinking maybe he was offended by such a small tip. I should have tipped him around $3. I've never had someone not take money from me. Is a dollar tip offensive to a delivery guy?

I tip at least 15% and most of the time 20%.

I also tip the my hair stylist barnstar.

I'm talking pizza and other food delivery people. In a restaurant, I'll usually tip 20 to 25% if the service is good. Unless it's a buffet and then I only tip around 10%, but again if the service was exceptional and they went out of their way, it can go up. laugh out loud

Considering how creepy they usually are, I wouldn't be at all surprised.
