A tip, or gratuity, is defined as a gift of money given to someone for performing a service, over and above the payment due for the service. Tips are not required, but they are expected by many people in the service industry. In fact, many U.S. waiters and waitresses are paid less than the minimum wage, as tips are expected to make up the other part of their income. The amounts and percentages suggested below should be used as a general guideline only. If service is poor, give a smaller tip or none at all. If service is superior, feel free to be more generous with your gratuity.In fine-dining establishments, there are a number of people to tip. Servers expect 15%20% of the pre-tax amount of the bill. If a number of bottles of wine are ordered during the course of the meal, the prevailing belief is that the wine costs should not be figured into the final tip. Of course, if a wine steward was involved in the selection and serving, he or she should be tipped 15% of the wine bill. A waiter or waitress should be taken care of, too, as that person can help to make your dining experience a favorable one. A twenty-dollar tip is a good place to start and will help to establish a relationship between the two of you. This can work in your favor when the time comes to entertain the important people in your life and career. Barmen should receive 15% of the bar bill, give the coat room attendant $1.00 per coat, and pass along $1.00 to the hotel parker. Tips also need to be given to certain people in the transportation industry. If you check your luggage at the curbside near the airport, tip your skycap (机场搬运工) a minimum of $1.00 per bag. Airport wheelchair pushers appreciate a few dollars for their efforts. Taxi drivers should be tipped 15% of the fare. Many cities around the world have established a riders bill of rights, which tells riders they have the right to enjoy, for example, air conditioning on command, a radio-free ride, smoke-free air, and a clean seat. Riders are encouraged not to tip if the rights are not complied with.Hairstylists at beauty salons and barbershops should be tipped 15% of the bill and those who shampoo your hair get $1.00 to $2.00. If more than one person provides services, for example one doing color and another cutting your hair, tip each person 10%15% of their portion of the bill. Manicurists (指甲美容师) should receive no less than $1.00 or 15% of the bill. At hotels, give the waiter $5.00 to $10.00 for bringing your luggage to your room. If you order room service, tips are usually included in the tab and range from 15% to 18% of the bill. Chambermaids appreciate $2.00 to $5.00 each day for taking care of your room. Give the doorman at least $1.00 for helping to call a taxi, and in terrible weather, give a little more. No tip is necessary for the doorman who takes care of a simple task, such as dinner reservations or a shuttle bus booking. For more complicated services, $10 to $20 is appropriate. There are some basic guidelines on tipping etiquette:Time Your Tipping Sometimes the tipping can be a reward, while sometimes it could be a subtle bribe. If you are using the service of one person repeatedly throughout your trip (say, a doorman) feel free to tip all at once at the end of your stay. If, however, you would like to ensure special service throughout your stay (say, from the doorman), a larger tip up front is a good idea. Keep Bills Handy for Tipping Keep several one-dollar bills handy in an accessible pocket. You dont want to be searching for them when youre taking luggage. Keep the bills neatly folded in groups of one or two bills.Dont Ask for Change According to tipping etiquette, it creates a very awkward situation to ask for change from the person you are tipping. If for some reason you dont have a tip ready, its better to skip it, particularly if you can get change from somewhere else and return with your tip at some point in the future. Know Your Tipping Tendencies Be aware of your own unconscious tipping tendencies. Studies show women tend to tip men more generously (and men tip women better). Tipping goes up universally when the weather is good, lower when it is not. Attractive women earn higher tips, as do attentive men who dont make mistakes. Know the Tipping PolicyIncreasingly, high-end hotels are instituting “no tipping policies” that include gratuities in the price of the room. Some, particularly resorts, are charging a daily fee that covers all gratuities. However, if you sign up for outside excursions or tours (even those that dont cost extra), chances are the drivers and /or the tour guides will expect tips. Ask about it when you book. Bed and Breakfast Tipping Etiquette In general, tipping etiquette dictates that business owners are not given tips. Most B&Bs fall under that category, and indeed, most have “no tipping policies” in place. If you are in doubt, ask about their tipping policy when you book your room. (If the housekeeping staff is not part of the family, do tip them as you would in a hotel.)Dont feel obligated to give a tip if the service given is bad. On the other hand, consider giving a larger tip for those who go out of their way to provide personalized or standout service. Although it is not required, tipping etiquette says that unless service is severely lacking in some way, do give a tip of some sort (or at least a smile and a thank you). Tipping etiquette varies worldwide. These tipping guidelines are for the United States only. Expectations (and tipping amounts) can vary quite a bit from country to country. Check a travel guide for the particular country you will be visiting for the proper tipping etiquette. Now that you know the secrets behind tipping etiquette, check the Hotel Tipping Guide for whom to tip at a hotel (and how much to tip them). 1. Tips are not only required but also expected by the people in the service industry.2.
