[quote=Anonymous]I really don't get the whole basis of this tipping for services provided by professionals who make a decent wage. I always tip 20% or more for waiters/ waitresses, but that is because they do not even make minimum wage in their paychecks. Massages are not cheap and I assume the masseuses are paid a very nice hourly rate. This is the same with upscale hairdressers. I am retired from work as a government attorney. I considered it a well-paying job, although much less than most private sector attorneys. I figured out one day that my hairdresser was probably making more than I made as an attorney per hour. I just don't see the logic of tipping such professionals, given their pay scale. In my opinion it is not at all on a par with service sector jobs paying minimum wages, or less. Am I the only one who thinks this way?[/quote]
