It's like crossing an intersection. There's shit going on all over the place and you don't panic and act like an idiot then do you?
How the fuck is the Delivery boy dumb? He said he explained it was only 12 dollars, meanwhile the guy is expecting change?
If I order 15 dollars of food, and give you 18 dollars in singles and then expect you to give me back two dollars I would be a huge fucking assholes.
This video pissed me off... guy is a douchebag.

He paid in singles.
Do we really need to play with semantics on this issue right now?
OT: It's a very reasonable assumption if you're being paid in singles that obviously exceed the cost that whatever remains is tip. If it was not intended to be tip, did the customer just expect the driver to be able to count better? It's hard to figure out a reason to overpay with small bills while not giving the excess as a tip.

It's called a tip :P That is the common usage vernacular for it.
And yes, despite what some people on this forum would like to believe, tipping is a social expectation when you order delivery food items or go to a restaurant in the United States. If you for some reason are offended by that, then there is always the option to not order takeout or eat out.
I would also advise you to not go out to dinner with a date, friends, colleagues, clients or an employer if you do not plan on tipping, since most Americans do tip (like 99.99% based on my own experience as a server/bartender while in college) and you'll just end up looking like a cheapskate.
In fact, I know someone whose employer passed up one of their colleagues for promotion when they did not adequately tip after taking their boss out to lunch and the boss in question felt obligated to come back and leave a tip themselves. That is how much of a breach of social etiquette not tipping may be.
Be a social warrior all you want, but choose to not tip at your own discretion.
Probably an internet myth because I've seen a few variations of it...
Here's your sign.A brand new CEO decides to take a stroll through the offices to prove that he really means business. He sees a man leaning against wall doing absolutely nothing. The CEO hones in and seizes this opportunity to show that he will not tolerate slacking. He approaches the man and asks him how much money he makes per week. The man responds that he makes about $800 so the CEO hands him $800, tells him he’s fired and points at the door. After the man walks out he turns to the other employees and says, “Now someone tell me what this guy’s job was!” Someone replies, “He’s the pizza delivery guy.”
6 people in that office and none of them stood up for the guy....
I've never been in that position (having delivered myself) but i would have refused to go back and give them the tip money back. I would see how far they want to take $8 tip, because i'm not spending my time and money (and gas/vehicular wear and tear) on people like that. They can get me fired, end of the day they are still wrong, and should get an $8 stupid tax for their error.
If you do this in a restaurant the waiter will pocket the rest and consider it a tip as well.

We already have an active tipping thread, do we need another thinly disguised one?

Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value you place on a life.
Just, be kind.
Also you're not going to get in any legal trouble for ducking out on a tip, just looked down at a bit, pretty sure you would for a fee.
I'm not sure how you're missing this. They had the exact amount, and they gave over it, and now they're expecting the person to come back to give it to them again. Why didn't they say something right away?
