I checked for the services I use. If I used a lot of those other services, I'd probably tip for them too. The only ones that surprise me as being on there are hotel cleaning staff and mail carriers. The first is one of those ones that I never thought about, but after reflection makes sense, and the second I only heard about last year, and I've heard varying impressions to the legality of it. Someone said that they're not allowed to accept monetary tips. o_0
Oh, and I used to tip taxi drivers in order to round up, and I sometimes still do, but I live in DC, and while we were on the 'zone' system, a ride home could cost $40. Now that we're on meters, it costs $16. I think you can see why I didn't tip on the zone system.
