What does it look like when a UPS driver goes above and beyond?  I've only ever had them hand me a package and then get back into the truck.  Do the bad ones just drive by and throw the package at your house without stopping?

I've never tipped my UPS driver, but I'm going to this year. I had two packages that weighed 70+ pounds delivered this year, and one I could barely handle getting into my house because it was so bulky. My tipping method for the UPS sitch is "would I get pissed when I see these package(s) and loathe the address that it was shipped to?"

Luckily, it can much more smoothly be passed off as a Christmas gift.

Do what you want friend, but none of that is above and beyond. In fact it's actually a list of the most fundamental aspects of the job.

My UPS guy should tip me for buying almost everything on line and making sure he has a crap load of hours.  I mean, walmart is like 4 min away...

I agree.  I say thank you often(probably too much), I tell most everyone I deal with professionally that I appreciate their time(I end a lot of convos and most emails with this), and I shake hands pretty much everywhere I go.  Ppl seem to like it.  I don't hand out gift cards to them all though.
