Do you tip the cable guy? When is it someone's job?
Honestly, I never tip them and I can't see why I would? Because they hooked up my cable?
The guy that is the installer in our community came last week when we moved in. He kept telling me how he was giving us a deal by waiving all these new account fees. He even called the office and said, "Hey, this guy just bought his HDTV from Circuit City, I need to give him that CC discount.."
Then he wouldn't stop talking about it. I had movers working getting our furniture in so things were hectic and the dude would not leave, he lagged around and after a while, it became obvious he wanted a tip. In addition, the guy said that he would order us a second HD box for the bedroom, of course, he never did that.
I tipped the movers of course, but I began to wonder if people tip cable guys as well? I finally started unpacking boxes and he eventually left.
Now, I didn't check his work and one of our outlets isn't working, so I have to call him again.
I tip everyone pretty well. I tip waiters, movers, valet, baggage guys, airport guys....but I really think it has to end with the cable guy.
Eventually, isn't is just your job?
Does the bathroom attendant that puts a towel in my hand tip me when he signs up for one of our paysites? Would he have a job if we didn't by bottles at the club?
