I am a good tipper, but only in situations that calls for tipping. Waitresses, waiters, concierge, pizza delivery guy, etc. These people work for minimum wage or less and need tips to make ends meet, they in essence work for tips.
Here no one works for tip, truth is she makes a great hourly rate. I bring wine or hor deurves or both but to my liking, it is my time I am spending money for, she is working, I am there for me and if she likes me or not is not my concern, even they all seem to like me. I do not tip providers or gift, that is me though, no judgment.

I feel the same about tipping although I am not overly generous with tips to the service industry I give a straight 20% and extra if the service was exceptional. I have on occasion giving a tip to a lady who went above and beyond but its rare.
I have been told by ladies that I need to get a move on because so and so is on his way and he is a good tipper. So tipping does get you better service. As it is I struggle to pay the basic rate so I think the ladies I see know they wont be seeing a tip.
There are some young girls I see who are very poor and truly struggling usually single moms. I do things to help them when I can like buy groceries or pay for a dentist visit or whatever it is they could really use. I am not cold hearted and feel very blessed so I have no problem helping someone out who really needs it.
