I do. If the room is clean and they don't make a racket in the hallway.

I don't tip maids because I hate them all because they universally ignore my DND sign while I'm day-sleeping after redeyes.

Unhappy

Im a commuter first officer.
To and from my car to the airport to start my trip = 10 total trips = 10 dollars
5 trips per month with 4 overnights per trip = 40 total van rides = 40 dollars

50 dollars is a lot of money per month
Im probably poor'er than the van driver due to my debt from flying school

5 trips per month with 4 overnights per trip? So you work 25 days per month, as a commuter? Regardless of the tipping or not conversation, that sounds like hell.
