Why should I tip a cab driver?  Just because it's a personal service that includes a monetary transaction doesn't mean that I should have to tip them.  Aren't they being paid by their employer (or shouldn't they be and the company can then raise their prices if needed)?  Do you tip your tax person?  What about your UPS person?  FedEx?  Floral delivery?  Where does it end?  Who decides what the social norms are?  I for one am tired of tipping for everything under the sun.  Pay your people a fair wage and charge whatever you need to charge.  [/quote]

Wow, I did not write this but this sounds just like me.

And to the person who said write Safeway, etc- Safeway drivers are not allowed to accept tips. I'm indeed going to write them and thank them for having some class. The issue is not people being cheap, the issue is that companies should pay their employees. But it's typical that most people don't see that, because most people are stupid and do things without thinking.

Maybe I should think of a business where I can charge customers, not pay my employees fairly, and then have my customers directly pay my employees wages. Oh wait, it's called owning a restaurant.

2012 will be the year you will be looked down upon if you do not tip your cashier and bagger at the grocery store.
