i've tried to not say anything, but i have read one too many 'rationalizations' for being too cheap to tip...a buck!
geezus people...it's one dollar. it is industry standard. it is a professional courtesy. did i mention it's only one dollar???
before you jump all over me...i am in the right seat of xyz regional making jack-diddly for pay also. so please spare me the "i can't afford it" bit.
if you want to be treated like a professional, play the part: look professional, act professional, and be professional.
all i'm saying is be the bigger person. if you that isn't a good enough reason and you need another consider it charity...these people are driving a friggin hotel van for a living! besides, you can deduct all your tips and then some come tax time.
rant over.
may your next one be greasy! (landing not van driver)
