[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 38121, member: 439"] our "environmental engineers" (garbage collectors) are civil servant positions - they make more than I do. No way would I tip them. When I was a stay at home mom and knew the mailman, I would get him a gift certificate every year (I knew he hunted, to I'd get him one from :censored:'s). But he really did a lot of extra stuff during the year. I don't tip someone coming into the house to service something, but I always offer them a soda or water or something. If they are here a really long time, or need to go out and come back with parts, I'll offer them money to get lunch. My dad worked heating and air conditioning for years, so it's just a left over from being around him. I tip 20% or more in a restaurant. I always "over" tip the pizza delivery people. We've had several from our local shop held up (one last week), so anyone doing that job is pretty desparate. And, of course, I ALWAYS put money in the busker's case when they are playing music!!!
