Tipping is out of control in this country!

Unless the driver somehow goes out of his way to assist me somehow (makes a stop at the gas station etc.) I don't tip.

Tip the maid, for what? Doing her job? I clean up after my self, I even make the bed when I leave. Don't think so!

Jesus! Even the "paper Boy" (if there was such a thing I might consider it) wants a tip for x-mas.

Maybe If I had the money to spread around I might be a little more generous, but I still don't understand why I should tip someone for what they get paid to do!

As far as I know servers at restaurants are still the only people who get paid below minimum wages, so I tip them. BUT it still enjoys me that I have to subsidize an industry’s unwillingness to pay minimum wages.

I pay a price for a service or product, if the individual selling me that service/product goes beyond what I expect I will return or tip depending on the situation.

I don’t tip for the sake of tipping!
