So to be clear, the dinner/beer hierarchy of gratitude ....

International Long-Haul:
1) Senior CA on a GS: Buys all dinners and beers (possibly for FA's too.)
2) Junior CA on a GS: Buys dinners and beers (possibly for FA's too.)
3) Senior FO on a GS: Buys beers.
4) Junior FO on a GS: Buys beers.

Domestic:
1) CA on a GS: Buys all dinners and beers.
2) FO on a GS: Buys beers.

In cases of no premium pay:
1) LCP (if installed) buys beers.
2) CA buys beers.
3) CA buys beers and dinner for new-hires (unless they don't tip the van driver.)

And lastly LCP on GSWC:
Buys dinner, beer and covers all tips for all crew and makes at least 1 car/mortgage payment for newhires.

At what level are expected to rent a A330 from Delta and take everyone to Hawaii?

If they handle bags, that's extra, and I'll give them a tip.

That's all anyone is saying. You tip for baggage handling.

I personally don’t care if I have to load my bags. It’s all about Joe much time I spend waiting

Most people haven't actually said that.

Tipping in much of the world outside of the US isn't even a thing. In many places they actively don't want it, in some places it's even considered an insult.
