Wow, the fact that they expect it is something else. At a freaking mechanic shop. But then again monkey see monkey do.

I've heard the argument of "tip for things you can't do yourself" and the exchange of "To Insure Prompt Service." I was always a heavy tipper until it started getting shoved on my face. I'm surprised my obgyn doesn't hand me a tip tablet before I leave the office.

Shit Dr. Baker on Little House On The Prairie used to get livestock and other items for his " services "

Not to debate tipping as I feel its totally up to the individual but it seems like anyone and everyone with their hand out for this.

I remember when there was a bunch of homeless people toward the Marriot off ramp begging for money, I was like fuck that I might as well get mines and I'll be honest with my sign out too.

There’s a place that will pull a nail and patch your tire for 15, I gave the guy 20 and tell him keep the change because I’m getting a good deal. If I’m paying shop hours for any type of mechanical work they’re not getting an extra cent off me.
