Not the norm, by any means at L-UA.
They are paid to get us from A to B safely. Not paid to handle my bag.
Do you load or unload your own bag? Doubtful.
Nice analogy about the employee lot shuttle. And nice avoidance of the obvious by saying "doesn't apply...I can walk!" Whatever.
Do what you feel is appropriate. I do not feel like a scab for not tipping for a scheduled ride to/from the training hotel. I tip if they schlep my bag for me.
