Nails


Services that I haven’t seen tipped:

Surprising but not so surprising is that on home improvement subreddits people talk about tipping the construction workers they hire to complete a job that they make profit on lol

I tip the hotel cleaning ladies. Tipped the guy that installed my gutters last week. Tip my Amazon delivery person.

If people do a good job, they should get a little extra. They’ll go above and beyond next time as well.

so you are making a spectacle of the tip?

When we go out and my husband pays, I don’t see what he tips

I do give a large tip for a solid haircut.

Massages


I always try to give a tip, but they say no.

There is no spectacle. What are you talking about? Are you really married? You don't give your husband a dirty look when annoyed? Believe it or not...men like annoying their wives once in a while.

Do you keep side money or does she literally account for all your spending? How does this work?
