[quote=Anonymous]"tipping" quasi-professionals is a NYC thing. In fact, New Yorkers assume they're supposed to grease the palms of pretty much anyone who does anything for them while on the job, ever. My best friend in NYC "tips" her child's teachers every Christmas, even though she is Jewish. She "tips" with cold hard cash the office staff at her internist. She "tips," again with several 20-dollar bills, her kid's speech therapist. No need to start that nonsense here. On the one hand, who doesn't like cash? OTOH, it's degrading. Is a teacher with a Master's degree akin to a hotel bellhop? Not really. You kid's camp counselor is not an exempted employee making under the minimum wage, is she? [/quote]
