During the holidays, it’s tradition to tip service providers who assist you throughout the year. Emily Post points out that it’s more like thanking them, vs. tipping them. Tipping seems so obligatory but thanking is really a gesture of kindness for the help they have given in the last year. Granted, it’s their jobs, but I still like the practice of offering some sort of thanks, even if it’s just some homemade cookies. Here are some guidelines to consider when deciding who and what to tip.
Doorman, elevator operator, etc for those in apartments in larger cities.
Use the above guidelines to let folks know you appreciate their dedication and assistance throughout the year and to let them know you look forward to working with them in the coming year. If you have any other suggestions or “tips” for tipping, please share them.
