Several years ago went out to lunch with the captain. The place we chose offered 20% discount to crew members. Both of us left our ID's at the hotel. The server stated no ID = no discount. The captain spent ten minutes essentially bullying her to the point of being annoying. She finally caved and agreed to give us the 20% discount.
Upon finishing his entire meal, plate clean, everything devoured the captain declared to me his meal was unsatisfactory and would not be leaving her a tip. I kept quiet and left more than enough tip to cover both of us.

We seem to have a growing number of pilots joining the flight attendants in future Sherpa training feeling the need to travel with everything they own. The standard bag tip anywhere in the world is a buck a bag not a buck for 3 or 4 bags. It's one of the reasons we get less then optimal service and timeliness from some drivers. If you have to travel with the kitchen sink and your blowup doll tip appropriately.
