Well said. Lot's of self righteous people on these boards. All the guys here who are 100% pro-tipping your van driver, otherwise your a worthless P.O.S, are all trying to cram their logic down everybodies throats, while the other guys don't care.

Is it your damn dollar? Then what the hell do any of you "tippers" care what someone else does with it? What does that van driver do that is so special anyways? Why are they so entitled to a tip? For fulfilling the MINIMUM requirement of picking you up at the airport, then driving you back the next day? They should be thanking YOU for helping provide them with a job. Exceptional service?? You're going for a 5 minute ride to your hotel! What exceptional service can you possibly get?? "Hey buddy, good job man..thanks for not killing us.. much appreciated, heres Mr. Washington whom seems to think so as well." It's like people thanking us for not killing them after we land.. it's our damn job.

Leave the U.S and tell me about tipping culture after you spend some time elsewhere. Tips are not even expected.. much less yet required.
