It's not what I do that is right. It's what everyone does, as a society. The society has deemed it respectful to tip a van driver who does a good job. We have also deemed it respectful to tip a waiter 20% when they do a good job. I don't have to tip them 20%. Or even 10%. But society has dictated that to me and, as such, I like to meet or exceed society's standards.

By the way, society has deemed it respectful to stand for the national anthem. Are you saying you think it's appropriate to buck that trend to?

There’s a huge difference between a van driver and a waiter, which is the point of this. The waiter is slaving over you to get your food. With the van driver you are catching a ride on his route. Sure if they go out of their way to take you places you should tip because that is not his job, that’s turning him into your personal servant. You see the difference? Also if society dictated that it is proper on your 30th birthday to jump off a cliff would you meet or exceed that society’s standard?
