RM1,000 (S$316) tip after delivery

At the start of the clip, Rafiuddin was seen delivering an order through a window outside a landed property to a customer named Brandon.

After passing the order to Brandon, he paused to take a picture of the delivered item before walking back to his motorcycle.

The customer stopped Rafiuddin as he got on his bike, asking him to wait while he fetched a tip for him.

After waiting for a while, Brandon reappeared at the window.

"Here you go," he said, passing Rafiuddin a stack of cash.

"You sure? This is a lot," said Rafiuddin as he held the money.

Brandon simply said that he was "leaving tomorrow" and that he was "too lazy to change his money back".

Rafiuddin returned to his motorcycle, beaming as he unfolded the stack, revealing RM100 notes totalling RM1,000 (S$316) in tips.

In the caption, he wrote that it was the "biggest tip he had ever gotten while doing GrabFood deliveries".

Grab Malaysia thanks the customer

Following Rafiuddin's post, his employer, Grab Malaysia, took to the comments section to thank Brandon.

The delivery and ride-hailing company said: "Thank you, Mr Brandon, for the very meaningful tip for our Grab brother. May you always be protected and your affairs eased."

Brandon's generosity also warmed other users' hearts, with many praising both the rider and the customer.

One user remarked that Rafiuddin "must have done something good that day", and "that God sent tips via Brandon".

"Generous lazy person," another user commented.

Some also wished for a customer like Brandon, with one saying: "Please send me a customer like this just once."
