Tips tips!

[tzikeh]

The tip poll--and only a week late!

This is a U.S.-centric poll. Tipping in the U.S. is very different from tipping in Europe; the results would be hopelessly skewed if it were a poll that included all nations. (I don't know if Canada's tipping etiquette is just like the U.S.; if it is, feel free to join in!)

If you find it interesting, please point friends in this direction.

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.
