I still wonder why it is expected that one should "tip" the garbage man and the letter carrier. I know this is an old argument, but they are being paid to do their job. You were paid to do your job. I am paid to do my job (almost) and nobody gives us tips.
Where will it end. We're expected to tip the housekeeper in the hotel, but not the desk clerk. The table server but not the greeter. (host) The newspaper carrier, but not the reporter. The tour guide and bus driver, but not the travel agent. The crew on the fishing boat, but not the captain.
