Default Apple Store Courier Delivery
I just ordered a new iPad from an Apple store. I planned to go pick it up tomorrow, but there was an option for free courier delivery tomorrow, which I selected, so I don’t have to spend an hour or more going there & back, walking in/out of the mall, etc.

Do I assume correctly that I need to tip this “courier”?

just yesterday, Apple was valued at 3 Trillion dollars as a company. so, yes, their employees need to be further compensated by tipping. they only have a few hundred million in cash on hand.

Just a delivery service. I don't tip Amazon, so I would not tip the Apple delivery service.

You bought an overpriced Apple product, and now you want to shell out even more money needlessly?

You tell that Apple Courier if he was such a genius, as apple portrays their unskilled employees, then he has the intelligence to figure out how to earn more money and you shouldn't have to pay him extra for doing the job he was hired and payed to do by the company.

And don't forget to tell him to eat a bag of dicks when he tells you to go **** yourself.
