I'm having my new TV delivered from Best Buy tomorrow. Does anyone know if it's ok for me to tip the guys/guy who unload and unbox the TV for me? I'd like to slip them a twenty for the trouble but I know some places forbade their employees from accepting tips.

If they do a good job, give 'em some cash. Maybe they won't take it, but there isn't any harm in offering reward for services.
Or two twenties, if you're Medium Pimpin'.

50". One flight.
I mean, I tip like crazy, being a bartender and all. I just was wondering if it was against company policy for them or anything. There are some places where employees are completely forbidden to accept gratuities.
If they can't take it they'll either A) not take it, or
I've both taken and not taken tips. Regardless, it's always appreciated.
I've never seen a no tipping sign. I've tried to tip at retail places near the holiday season (wrapping and what not) and been told they can't accept gratuities. As in, "We will be fired if caught.".
Well, what if you just happened to find a twenty on the front stoop?
I mean, it's not in my house. Can't be mine. Must be yours.

just offer them a tip and leave it up to them to accept. if it's against company policy, it'll be up to them at that point what to do. but it's never a bad thing on your end to offer.

Yeah, but your method gives him a much higher chance of accidentally getting a handful of delivery-guy dong versus just leaving it on the front stoop.

This is absolutely correct.
Either an employee will accept or not. It isn't your place to enforce their employer's "code of ethics".

Two bills is key.
I just do the casual folded bill(s) with a handshake thing.
But when a lil ole lady keeps insisting that I take the 10 bucks for loading up 250 pounds of peat moss into her husbands pickup, what's a kid to do?
Oh so many good tips have come this way.
Best and most sly way ever.

Guys delivering your tv get $5,$10,$20 each, depending on how you roll. A tip for any non-waitress related employment is unexpected, so you can get away with $5 if you are thrifty.
Tip well, tip often. Good Karma.
It also depends how fast there are, if they act friendly, if they attempt to make small talk. That can increase their tip.
I think you should offer a tip. If they say no, we can't, sorry, just be like... oh alright. I'm just gonna drop this bill here on the ground...
That could come off as offensive. If they tell you flat out they can not accept tips, that pretty much means that for whatever reason they will not accept tips. They are rejecting the gratuity for corporate loyalty, fear, integrity, what the fuck ever, but it's their business.
Meh. I try not to judge. If I run into someone who is surly or distracted or something I usually give them the benefit of the doubt that they are having a rough day or something. Isn't it so much easier to forgive than to judge?
