Is $2 an insulting tip for a food delivery guy?

[Rhone]

So, Chinese food delivered tonight. Same guy who's come 2 or 3 times in the past. Last time I noticed he kind of walked off in a huff after I tipped him, and today I open the door, and the first thing he says as he's handing me the bag of food is that I shouldn't bother with a tip if it's only going to be $2.

I always figured $2 was pretty standard. What do you think? Have I been tipping too little?

I usually overtip, maybe $3, but that's because I'm friendly to those guys. If he said that to you, just tell him to go [censored] himself.

[DangerGoodson]

he should do his job and be happy with the money he gets. I know a couple people that never tip.

I think next time you should take his advice and not bother with a tip if he's going to be a dick about it. $2 for delivery is plenty - if it's between 15 and 20 though, I always just give the 20 and be done with it.

[DemonDeac]

whats wrong with $2. whats the bill? i cant imagine anything really high. anything under $25 and its $2.

just tell him thanks for letting you save the money for someone who'll appreciate it..........an asian stripper.............o right [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Man thats a weak delivery guy, who is a disgrace to delivery guys.

I would have a hard time not putting my foot in his ass when he said that, the nerve of this guy.

Considering he said that, I would make some ridiculous order of like 50 bucks in white rice then not tip him, and I would do it often.

2 bucks is absolutely standard, with nothing or 1 dollar being the cheap food delivery tip.

two is a crap tip, however if he would have said that [censored] to me, I would stiff him AND contact the manager of the store and tell him what his driver said

$2 is my standard tip. this delivery guy is a tool. if he doesnt want your 2 bucks dont give him anything.

for a 10-15ish order 2 is a crap tip?
