We gotta work it out and shift some stuff around and get it in on a bit of angle and when we get it in, he's genuinely stoked and gives a high five. I thank him sincerely and offer a twenty for his help, which was needed. He looks at it and I could see the conflict in his face and then turns it down, stating company policy. I try to convince him to palm it, or I drop it on the ground, but still no. On the way home I decide to celebrate by getting a six pack and of course there is a tip option and by maybe by intention, I have to hit the "no tip" touchscreen more than once, for someone who has offered nothing in the way of service.
Kind of annoys me that I can't recognize and reward someone for their friendly help with more compensation.

If you had gone in and said you'd return the tv unless you could give the kid the tip he deserved you'd of been a hero.
