"I don't tip." "I just don't believe in it."-Mr Pink (Reservoir Dogs)
I tip well in restaurants where the waitress/waiter have been very helpful and friendly. Hell, I tip in Airport cafe's whent he waitress has been rude and impersonal!
BUT I draw the line at Taxi drivers...specifically rude taxi drivers who say nothing throughout the entire journey except the cost of the trip. They'll get a tip from me when they pry it from my cold dead hands! I did tip a taxi driver once in Spain, one that actually talked to me and helped me with my bags...seemingly a rare breed. A hate it when people can expect to get a tip even when they do a crumby job.. then what's the point of a tip, it just becomes part of their automatic wages!
