Yep. I am not rich, but I always tip drivers a 5.

I don't know why this is, or if anyone else has noticed this. Maybe the people who have lots of money have lots of money because they are stingy with it

Yep, greed.

I usually try to not let it bother me when I don't get a tip. I figure if I have a bad attitude towards them, then I have just lowered myself to their level!

Years ago, I had three jobs, two of them were catering, and one was at a diner waiting tables. Some Saturdays, I worked the over night, 11-7am. Lame, but the tips were usually good. Because we were the one of the only diners open 24 hours on Saturday, we would be packed, and us girls would be running all night long. One night we were slammed, and I was stiffed by a table I gave great service to. Fill water and coffee, smile, checking on them a lot. Nothing.
I chased them out the door yelling, "Thaaaaank You!!!!" -- And then felt a little better...
Fuck Mr. Pink. Waiting is not an easy job, and it's a shit job. 15% should always be figured in. It's earned through the hospitality service job title, not how fast I drive, or how hard I work to kiss someone's ass.
