[QUOTE="bball, post: 1488643, member: 23752"] I tip: Pizza delivery folks. If I'm too lazy to cook and too lazy to pick it up, then I believe in throwing the person 5 bucks for delivering my food. My garbage man. At Christmas time, I greet him with a $50.00 bill. There is pretty much nothing he won't take if I put it out by the toter. I appreciate that. My mechanic. I always bring Chris a case of Miller Lite when my vehicle is ready. He takes great care to get my vehicle back quickly and correctly. My barber. My schedule is screwy. She squeezes me in short notice and knows exactly how I like it cut. Waitresses, baggage folks, etc. My mother waited tables and I have vivid recollection of how tired she was when she got home and would tell stories about folks stiffing her, or leaving petty change. If you can afford to eat out, then you can afford to leave a tip to the folks handling your food and cleaning your mess when you're done. As far as not tipping plumbers, or tradesman.... I received tips regularly while employed as a plumber. Sometimes cash, sometimes lunch. You ALWAYS remember the people that treat you well. If I have folks work for me, which is rare, but when I do, I buy them lunch and the hired hands get $20's. [/QUOTE]
