Other who are about to drive away I "say thanks for nothing" Then the people who are ready to leave after them say man what a bunch of scumbags lol I am thinking that as well.
The final word is 1 out of every 100 cars will not tip or even less so sometimes you can't stress if you get f'd by a tip. In the end it all averages out each night you will always work unless you have a slow night.
that's just being a prick... NEVER ask for a tip. This is coming from a bartender/server.
Just keep dave dresden away from your tips and you'll be fine.

I always give a good tip, I mean, you give up a little bit of money, and it may actually make someones day better, you know? I'll part with the extra cash. Then again, I don't eat out often, so I'm able to do so.
I once tipped a pizza guy 70%

the thing about valet is that sometimes it's not clear whether the the person makes money off tips or if the are paid an hourly wage. I would really like for the dude to just tell me they work off tips and I'd gladly tip more but I usually just do like the 1-2 dollars.

mentioning tips at all is just rude.
there's a reason why it's common practice to conceal them.

As pkc said, the whole "mandatory tipping" thing in the US is stupid.
Tips should be a genuine reward for people who've exceeded your expectations, not a certainty.
What the hell? Two pages (on default settings, none of that 40+ bs) in a thread about tipping in the COR and no mention of Carl Cox?

if you look closely, you'll see a subtle reference.
