		 loving great food and nice hotels, tipping isn't something that i take lightly. its awkward and uncomfortable and you almost always feel that you're not sure whats appropriate and always reluctant and uncertain when you know they barely made an effort.  
 
i tip for service. period. end of story. great service.... great tip. poor service... no tip. i don't feel i owe someone money just because they managed to simply show up to work. i'm not their employer. my contract with the restaurant, hotel etc is that i come in, sit down, choose from the menu and pay for it. anything beyond that was not part of the deal and is something done out of kindness and appreciation for someone who made the experience better.  
 
i definately don't appreciate someone who feels that i owe them money by default, regardless of whether or not they provided great service or not.
