It’s their job and tips are expected.  The second or third time you get your car, you may be waiting awhile.[/quote]

Except how many of these same people do not tip housekeeping because it is less awkward not do so since no one is sticking their hand out. They work so much harder and I bet they get shafted on tips. Meanwhile, bellhops and valets get tipped well considering the work.[/quote]

PP. it also it is not lost on me that the roles receiving the better tips are male and the worse ones are women. [/quote]

Who else are we expected to tip that we have never seen? You tip people giving you a personal service. You don’t tend to tip people doing the unseen work. Like the waiter but not the chef. Or the hairstylist but not the person who sweeps the floors and cleans the hair washing bowls. I tip the nail tech but not the person answering the phone making appointments.[/quote]

Should I tip my doctor?  [/quote]

Does she make below min wage or barely a living wage? Salaried people don't get tips but some hourly people do, often those who go a bit above and beyond. In some places tips are just flat out not allowed. You're just expected to know, there isn't a handbook.[/quote]

Oh please. When they stop charging me $50 to park my car, I'll consider subsidizing the company so they can pay their employees a living wage. It's a rip-off and a scam and you're enabling it. [/quote]

I don't always tip the valet or hotel maids. I don't tip doctors either. Just pointing out that there isn't a lot of rhyme or reason.  But I wouldn't skip tipping my hair stylist if I wanted to go back. If you see anyone giving you personal service like hair, nails or massage I get you tip them too.[/quote]

Sometimes. If it's the owner and she pays herself out of the very expensive cuts she gives me, I do not feel that I need to tip her 20%. [/quote]
