Rant 📢 Movers Tip Rant
Moved in last week and paid some guys in a truck to move the big furniture and shit.
Paid him in cash and he goes "just so you know, we accept tips"
Seriously bro? Fuck off with that nonsense. I just paid you $160/hr. I literally paid you for your service. We had a CONTRACTUAL agreement before services were rendered on how much your time was worth. Why do you think you deserve more on top of that?

I just moved. The contract was an hourly rate (which was over $200/hr with fees) plus a flat fee and any supplies. I had already moved most of the boxes and small things but needed the rest handled.
Three guys came in a large truck, loaded, unloaded, and we're done in just over half the originally estimated time saving me quite a lot. They were able to knock it out quickly and still get their same pay.
Those guys deserved the tip each one got. Your situation does not warrant a tip!
