What about the cashier at the grocery store since some stores don't have self-checkout? I assume you tip at the dry cleaners too since they won't let you use their equipment?Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08811858639259602946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10023572.post-61655446332055888252012-06-04T10:13:26.669-04:002012-06-04T10:13:26.669-04:00full service is required at restaurants too...

I mean, when you go to applebee's, I don't think they would let you stroll back to the kitchen and pick up your own food when it's ready... do you tip your waiter?<br /><br />on the other hand, I suspect there's a higher level of variance in terms of the level of service you get from waitstaff at a restaurant and what you get from a gas station attendant... if the rationale behind tipping is to encourage good service, then perhaps your inclination to tip if the attendant at least washed the windows (or in some other way provided "good" service) is the right way to go... after all, the only way you could have had *worse* service would have been if he poured sand in your gas tank...Captain Easychordhttp://www.corsairsaffairs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10023572.post-25581419431102116212012-06-04T10:08:53.875-04:002012-06-04T10:08:53.875-04:00I have lived in New Jersey for 15 years now and ha...I have lived in New Jersey for 15 years now and have never once tipped a gas station attendant.
