This. Few things are more ridiculous than tipping one dollar especially in very nice hotels in very expensive cities. It’s positively embarrassing when people tip an American dollar after getting out of the van in say Tokyo. It shows very little SA culturally and socially. This is becoming more and more similar in the US. A dollar doesn’t buy much or show much appreciation. I know that people like to follow the stream in the airline community but don’t feel compelled to tip that same dollar your OE capt. used to tip poor van drivers in the 1980’s. If someone does a great job picking you up handling your bags, giving you guidance on food, etc. give them some amount they can appreciate. This BS won’t change unless we change it.
