As the title says, bought some nicer furniture which is being delivered and curious if I should tip the delivery driver.

Edit: I’m in the USA.

    If you’re in the US it’s expected to tip everyone.

    Please don’t forget to tip your landlord - inflation is hitting them hard right now.

      My landlord is really awesome, I didn’t realize tipping them was a thing we should do. What’s the etiquette for this? Monthly? Only when a service is needed? Etc

        What relationship do you wish to cultivate?

        In order to detach your contribution from their behavior, or in order to attach your contribution to their behavior?

        My coarse understanding is that decades ago the gratuity was originally before service, so that one could establish the quality of service they were requesting.

        This can be achieved by what you intend and practice.

      I tip my bank teller, the canvasser with the clipboard in front of the supermarket, and the traffic light for turning green.
