Tipping
Not sure if this thread belongs here, but I've been wondering about tipping etiquette. Usually I tip the hotel van driver $1-2. But what if I am bag-less (and therefore the driver hasn't helped load any bags into the van), is it OK not to tip at all?
Also, I have to do off-airport parking at my base. There is a shuttle that takes you to and from the airport to the parking company (it's like a 2 min drive.) Sometimes I load my own bag(s) and sometimes the driver will help. Should I be tipping the driver? So far I haven't because I do mostly out and backs which means I get on that shuttle almost every day, sometimes twice a day. Those dollars can add up and as a first year regional guy, I figure I need the money more than the driver does! BUT, there's a part of me that does feel slightly weird about stepping off the van with just a "thank you".. what do you think, what is the etiquette here?
