At restaurants I usually tip 15-18% unless the service was exceptional and then I'll do 20%.
But the other day we were at an event where we had to pay $10 for valet parking. I wasn't sure if you're supposed to tip when you have to pay for valet. Anyone know? I always tip when the valet is complimentary. But $10 for parking my car 2 feet away already seemed pricey. What would you guys have done? I tipped but only because I saw everyone else in line tipping. |
It happened to me with a "hair cut"...I was new in town then I went for a hair cut. About the third time I realize that clients were tipping the young lady..I felt horrible about that, hopefully she learned I was a foreign
