Re: Tips?
My British ‘you gift the mailman at Xmas…. Seriously WHY!!’ was not particularly appreciated.
I have never received a satisfactory answer to "why?" - only outrage at daring to ask and for challenging the tradition or practice.
I am not sure anyone could convince me tipping workers is anything but a means to address an otherwise morally repugnant situation which I am therefore obliged not to support nor indulge in.
When I do tip workers it is not so much to benefit them but to avoid criticism from those who believe I must.
I would probably also keep my thoughts to myself if I were worried by forum downvotes.
