I never saw a moor, I never saw the sea; yet I know how the heather looks, and what a wave must be. Ah, the dilemmas of tipping: Should you? If so, how much—and when? There was a time when you tipped to show your appreciation for good service. Nowadays restaurants in particular automatically figure in potential tips when deciding what to pay their workers. This allows the restaurant to pay lower wages—and turns tips into an absolute necessity for those workers. In these cases, the only way to show special appreciation is to tip more than the expected amount. With other professions, such as furniture movers, the old concept still holes: They are getting paid a good salary to do their job, any tip you give is considered an expression of thanks for outstanding service. The same goes for any business that posts a tip jar on the counter; in these cases a tip is not necessary, an whether you decide to leave one or not is totally up to you. On the other hand, if you fail to tip when it is expected, you can be assured that the gesture will be perceived as being unfriendly—a message you probably do not want to send. Even in cases where the service is truly bad—for example, when your restaurant waiter is inattentive or rude—the wrong response is to leave a greatly reduced tip. #RandolphHarris 1 of 23
Leaving an unusually low tip for service that was not up to your standards does not accomplish anything other than annoying your server. If there is a real problem with someone’s service, leave a tip that is on the low end of usual—then make a point of taking up your complaint with that person’s manager or supervisor. Appropriate tips for business and professional services are an important area of consideration. For barbers, a tip of 15 to 20 percent is perfectly reasonable, but round up to the nearest dollar. The woman who cuts my hair charges sixty dollars, and I tip twenty dollars each time. It is easier, and she is worthy every penny. If you are in a fancy salon in which different people provide hair washing, shaving, and so on, give a tip of five or ten dollars to each service provider and a tip equal to 15 or 20 percent of the bill to the person who cute your hair. When the owner cuts your hair, that is usually a major compliment, and it is important for you to also show respect to them, especially as a gift during the holidays. Delivers are of extreme importance to many people at the point in our lives. A supermarket delivery person should receiver around at least five dollars per delivery, more as the number of bags and flights of stairs increase. Many delivery services are barely earning a profit. #RandolphHarris 2 of 23
Food deliverers usually get a tip equal to 15 percent of the bill because the delivery charge does to the owner. The tip should be at least five dollars for a pizza, and say five to ten dollars if the order is larger or the delivery involves several flights of stairs. Movers are another category to consider. The head mover gets one around one hundred dollars and crew members should get fifty dollars, depending on how much furniture is moved. If they also packed your belongings, the tip may increase. Garage attendants are very important as they are handling your beloved vehicle. At least consider giving them a ten-dollar tip to the parking lot attendant who brings your car to you when you pick it up. If you park your car in the garage, you may want to tip he attendants twenty dollars periodically to ensure prompt service, then offer a large tip at the holidays. For the municipal solid waste (refuse) and recyclables collector, hand out a twenty dollar per crew member tip at the holidays. If your service is municipal, check to be sure there is no regulation preventing gifts to crew members before offering them. For lawn care, if the gardener is polite and does not wake you and the entire neighbourhood up to the endless, disturbing, and obnoxiously loud sound of a leaf blower for hours on end every day, you can offer him or her a fifty-dollar time at the end of the season. #RandolphHarris 3 of 23
Grocery loaders sure can be a huge convince, if the loader helps you to your car with the normal number of bags, tip five dollars. If you have a large number of bags, consider a ten-dollar tip. Generally, you should tip your taxi drivers approximately 15 percent of the cost of the fare—but never less than two or thee dollars. For instance, 15 percent of a twelve-dollar fare comes to $1.80; in this case, it makes sense to round the tip up to an even two dollars. Private cars and limousines are an important item for many business people. If you get billed regularly by a car service, the best approach is to ask the company if a gratuity is included, in the fee. If not, ask the scheduler to add a 15-percent gratuity to the bill. This way everything is included, and you do not have to worry about fumbling for a tip when you arrive at your destination. If you are paying for the trip at the end of the ride, then tip the driver as you would for a taxi. Sometimes a car service ma be provided for you by a company or some other third party. In this case, offer the driver a five to ten-dollar tip at the end of the ride. It is a nice gesture on your part. In Washington D.C., I once had a car service at my disposal for an entire day. During my downtime between interviews, the driver took me to visit the Vietnam War Memorial, the Korean War Memorial, and several other sites around the Mall. I gave him an extra-large tip of three hundred and seventy-five dollars as a sign of my gratitude—even though someone else was paying the bill. #RandolphHarris 4 of 23
Tipping at restaurants is something we all want to do to make sure people know we come from good stock. For coatroom attendants, tip the attendant five dollars per coat when you pick up your garments—and add a few extra dollars if you also checked parcels, umbrellas, or hats. As for the washroom attendants—you will tend to see them much more in Europe than in the Untied States of America, though there is a recent trend toward having washroom attendants at restaurants in larger U.S. cities. You may want to consider tipping the attendant no less than five dollars. Often the washroom will have a plate with some money on it where you can leave a tip. Waiters and waitresses are very important people because they handle your food and make sure that you are enjoying the atmosphere in restaurant you are eating at. Eating at a restaurant is usually a treat or for a celebration. Tipping the waitstaff has changed from the traditional 15 percent. Today most people tip 20 percent, both out of generosity and because the math is easier. One important note: The tip is based on the cost of the meal before any taxes are added. If the waiter serves wine or any other drinks, then the cost of these beverages should be figured into the tip as well. However, most Americans are so generous, they even tip on top of the price after taxes are added in. #RandolphHarris 5 of 23
Waitstaff at a buffet-style restaurant should be left a 10-percent rather than 15-percent tip because they do not provide full service. Generally, bus staff are not tipped but receive a share of the pooled tips. Be careful to check the menu and your bill for any indication that gratuity has been added to the bill, especially for group of six more people. Usually you do not tip the restaurant maître d’ or host or hostess. The harsh truth is, tipping the maître d’ is not really likely to get you a good table. On the other hand, if you go to a certain restaurant often, you may want to tip the maître d’, host, or hostess ten to twenty dollars every once in a while to acknowledge their ongoing service and attention to your needs, if that is the case. As for the wine steward—if the restaurant has a wine steward who helps you select the wine and pour it for you, you should tip him or her the same percentage you will tip the waitstaff, usually 20 percent. I am often asked, “What if you buy a four hundred-dollar bottle of wine? Does it not seem a little excessive to tip the wine steward eighty dollars?” My response: If you can handle buying a four hundred-dollar bottle of wine, then you can handle an eighty-dollar tip for the wine steward. #RandolphHarris 6 of 23
You can either tip the wine steward in cash when he or she pours the last of the wine or you can list his or her tip separately and add it to the bill at the end of the meal. Remember, if you do tip the wine steward separately deduct the prince of the wine from the bill before figuring the tip for the waitstaff or you will end up tipping twice on the wine. Generally, bartenders are tipped 20 percent of the bar bill. If you are at a restaurant and have drinks while you are waiting for your table, you should leave a 20-percent tip for the bartender before being shown to your table. Remember: if you do not tip the bartender and the drinks are part of your total bill, mentally deduct the bar tab from the bill before figuring the tip. There are usually two different kinds of musicians in restaurants—those who play in the background and musicians who go from table to table like traveling minstrels. Musicians who play in the background, such as piano players, will usually have a brandy snifter or some other container for tips. As with all tip jars, the decision to tip in this case is entirely up to you. Musicians who travel from table to table should be tipped five dollars or ten when they visit your table plus five dollars for each request. Do not feel you have to wait for the musician to finish playing before tucking into your meals. You are there to enjoy your food, so feel free to eat while you are being served. #RandolphHarris 7 of 23
Valet parking sure is a nice convivence. It is appropriate to tip the parking attendant five to ten dollars when he or she brings you your car. In a large metropolitan area, the tip maybe as much as twenty dollars. Holiday tipping is a great way to show how grateful you are. Consider giving the newspaper delivery person twenty-dollar tip. Household help is essential for so many working adults in their busy daily lives. A cleaning person or a regular babysitter should generally be offered a monetary gift to the cost of one service, plus a small gift. For a babysitter, the gift can be from the child(ren). Usually, you do not tip household help on a weekly basis. If you hire a person to do a onetime cleaning, hen a 20-percent tip at the time of service is appropriate. Similarly, do not forget dog walkers and plant waters who also make your life easier throughout the year. Residential building employees can be a blessing. Superintendents should typically be given a tip of around fifty dollars if they help with deliveries, fix things, or carry heavy items for you—ranging down to twenty dollars or less if these services are not provided. The doorman is someone who is often overlooked, but always keeps an eye out of us. Give a holiday tip of around fifty dollars for a very helpful door-person and less for those you do not interact with regularly. #RandolphHarris 8 of 23
Elevator operators are a nice convivence. A ten- to twenty-dollar tip at the holiday season is an appropriate thank you for service throughout the year. If he or she does something special for you, tip at the time the service is given. For greeters you do not see—your building may have several different greeters working at times when you do no see them, yet they provide a valuable service just by being there and being available. If your building has several greeters, check to see if a tip pool has been set up by the building to share tips for the greeters. You can always give the greeters who you see often a little something extra. The same is true for other residential building personnel. Tipping when traveling is a special category. When I am simply unsure of how much to leave, I am uncomfortable tipping. This issue comes up most often when I am in countries other than the United States of America. I want to tip reasonably for the expectations of the country I am visiting, but I simply do not know what those expectations are. If you are raveling abroad, take the time to check online or read a good travel book on the region you are heading to—the good ones almost always include advice on tipping. They key is to pin down this information before you leave home, so you will know what is customary once you reach the place you are visiting. #RandolphHarris 9 of 23
On the cruise ship there will generally be provided a detailed gratuity schedule. Check with your cruise company or their Web site regarding this schedule before setting sail—then follow it. All of us at sometime or another have to fly. At the airport, skycaps should be tipped five dollars for one bag, and a few dollars for each additional bag. Wheelchair pushers and cart drivers can be tipped five to ten dollars. Airline ground personnel and flight attendants are not usually tipped. Motels and hotels can be a nice get away for many of us. If the bell person helps you with your baggage, tip five dollars and a few dollars for each additional bag. Any additional service, such as bringing you a package, should be tipped five dollars each time. If the greeter at the hotel helps you with your baggage, again tip five dollars and a few additional dollars per bag. If the greeter gets a cap for you, a tip of five dollars or more is appropriate, depending on the weather and how hard he or she had to work to get the cab. Room service is so vital when we are on vacation or a business trip. Tip 15 percent of the bill but never less than five dollars. Not that this is in addition to the hotel’s fee for providing room service. The only exception to this is if the hotel has already added both a room service fee and a gratuity on the room service receipt. #RandolphHarris 10 of 23
The Concierge: Generally, the concierge should be tipped at least ten dollars for arranging your reservation, and so on. If he or she has gone above and beyond the call of normal service, you can increase the amount. For example, tip 20 percent of the ticket price for hard-to-get theater tickets. Housekeeping is a great service for adults who are on the go. The housekeeping staff is often ignored in the tipping department. Yet they perform vital service, and saying “thank you” to them is as appropriate as it is for the concierge, greeter, or baggage handler. Depending on the hotel a tip of five to ten dollars a day is appropriate. It is best to leave it each day in an envelope or with a note marked “Housekeeping—thank you” as staff may change day to day. The impact of such a person on others may be the most memorable event of their lives or it may be the most trivial. That will depend on their own readiness to appreciate and estimate, their own capacity to absorb and receive. Take only the quality of one’s serenity, for instance, and imagine what it could mean to anyone thrown into contact with one during an important time in their lives. “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, not depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord,” reports Romans 8.38-39. #RandolphHarris 11 of 23
These well-known words of Paul express the Christian faith in divine Providence. They are the first and fundamental interpretation of the disturbing words in the gospel of Matthew, where Jesus commands us not to take any though about our life and food and clothing, and to seek first the Kingdom of God, for all of our daily life and needs are already known by God. We need such an interpretation. For there are a few articles of the Christian faith which are more important for the daily life of every man and woman, and there are few more open to misunderstanding and distortion. And such misunderstanding necessarily leads to a disillusionment which not only turns the hearts of humans away from God, but also creates a revolt against Him, against Christianity, and against religion. When I spoke to the soldiers between the battles of the last war, they expressed their denial of the Christian message in terms of an attack upon the belief in Providence—an attack which obviously drew its bitterness from fundamental disappointments. After reading a paper written by the great Einstein, in which he challenges the faith in a personal God, I concluded that there was no difference between his feeling and that of the unsophisticated soldier. The idea of God seemed to be impossible, because the reality of our World seems to be in opposition to the all-might power of a wise and righteous God. #RandolphHarris 12 of 23
Once, when I tried to interpret to a group of Christian and Jewish refugees the paradoxical character of the divine World-government in terms of Second Isaiah, a formerly eminent Jew from West Germany told me that he had received many cablegrams from Southern France informing him of the horrible story of the sudden evacuation, from Germany, of nearly ten thousand Jews of the age of ninety or more, and of their transportation to the concentration camps. He said that the thought of this unimaginable misery prevented him from being able to find meaning in even the most powerful message concerning the divine Providence. What answer shall we give, what answer can we give to such a crucial problem—a problem in which Christianity as a whole is at stake, a problem in which has nothing to do with a theoretical criticism of the idea of God, but rather which represents the anguish of the human heart which can no longer stand the power borne by the daemonic forces on Earth? Paul speaks of these forces. He knows them all: the horror of death and the anxiety of life; the irresistible strength of natural and historic powers; the ambiguity of the present and the inscrutable darkness of the future; the incalculable turns of fate from height to depth, and from depth to height; and the destruction of creature by creature. #RandolphHarris 13 of 23
Paul knows the forces all as well as we do, who have, in our period, rediscovered them, after a short time in which Providence and reality seemed to be a matter of fact. However, it never was, and never will be, a matter of fact. It is rather a matter of the most powerful, the most paradoxical, and the most venturing faith. Only as such has it meaning and truth. What is its content? It is certainly not a vague promise that, with the help of God, everything will come to a good end; there are many things that come to a bad end. And it is not the maintenance of hope in every situation; there are situations in which there can be no hope. Nor is it the anticipation of a period of history, in which divine Providence will be proved by human happiness and goodness; there is no generation in which divine Providence will be less paradoxical than it is in ours. However, the content of the faith in Providence is this; when death rains from Heaven as it does now, when cruelty wields power over nations and individuals as it does now, when hunger and persecution drive millions from place to place as they do now, and when prisons and slums all over the World distort the humanity of bodies and souls of humans as they do now—we can boast in that time, and just in that time, that even all of this cannot separate us from the love of God. #RandolphHarris 14 of 23
In this sense, and in this sense alone, all things work together for good, for the ultimate good, the eternal love, and the Kingdom of God. Faith in divine Providence is the faith that nothing can prevent us from fulfilling the ultimate meaning of our existence. Providence does not mean a divine planning by which everything is predetermined, as is an efficient machine. Rather, Providence means that there is a creative and saving possibility implied in every situation, which cannot be destroyed by any event. Providence means that the daemonic and destructive forces within ourselves and our World can never have an unbreakable grasp on us, and that the bond which connects us with the fulfilling love can never be disrupted. This love appears to us and is embodied in “Christ Jesus our Lord.” By adding this, Paul does no use a merely solemn phrase, as we often do when we use the words. He uses them, rather, after he has pointed to the only thing that can destroy our faith in Providence, which is our disbelief in the love of God, our distrust of God, our fear of His wrath, our hatred of his Presence, our conception of Him as a tyrant who condemns us, and our feeling of sins and guilt. It is not the depth of our suffering, but the depth of our faith in Providence. #RandolphHarris 15 of 23
Providence and the forgiveness of sins are not two separate aspects of the Christian faith; they are one and the same—the certainty that we can reach eternal life in spite of suffering and sin. Paul unites both words by saying, “Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ Jesus…who maketh intercessions for us,” and therefore, he continues, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? In all these things we are more than conquerors through one who loves us.” This is the faith in Providence, and this alone. “Now Alma, seeing that the words of Amulek had silenced Zeezrom, for he beheld that Amulek had caught him in his lying and deceiving to destroy him, and seeing that he began to tremble under a consciousness of his guilt, he opened his mouth and began to speak unto him, and to establish the words of Amulek, and to explain things beyond, or to unfold the scriptures beyond that which Amulek had done. Now the words that Alma spake unto Zeezrom were heard by the people round about; for the multitude was great, and he spake on this wise; now Zeezrom, seeing that thou hast been taken in thy lying and craftiness, for thou hast not lied unto humans only but thou hast lied unto God; for behold, he knows all thy thoughts, and thou seest that thy thoughts are made know unto us by his Spirit. #RandolphHarris 16 of 23
“And thou seest that we know that thy plan was a very subtle plan, as to the subtlety of the devil, for to lie and to deceive this people that thou mightest set them against us, to revile us and to cast us out—now this was a plan of thine adversary, and he hah exercised his power in thee. Now I would that ye should remember that what I say unto thee I say unto all. And behold I say unto you all that this was a snare of the adversary, which he has laid to catch this people, that he might bring you into subjection unto him, that he might chain you down to everlasting destruction, according to the power of his captivity. Now when Alma had spoken these words, Zeezrom began to tremble more exceedingly, for he was convinced more and more of the power of God; and he was also convinced that Alma and Amulek had a knowledge of him, for he was convinced that they knew the thoughts and intents of his heart; for power was given unto them that they might know of these things according to the spirit of prophecy. And Zeezrom began to inquire of them diligently, that he might know more concerning the kingdom of God. And he said unto Alma: What does this mean which Amulek hath spoken concerning he resurrection of the dead, that all shall rise from the dead, both the just and the unjust, and are brought to stand before God to be judged according to their works? #RandolphHarris 17 of 23
“And now Alma began to expound these things unto him, saying: It is given unto many to know the mysteries of God; nevertheless they are laid under a strict command that they shall not important only according to the proportion of his word which he doth grant unto the children of humans, according to the heed and diligence which they give unto him. And therefore, he that will harden his heart, the same recieveth the lesser portion of the word; and one that will not harden one’s heart, to one is given the greater portion of the word, until it is given unto one to know the mysteries of God until one know them in full. And they that will harden their hearts, to them is given the lesser portion of the word until they know nothing concerning his mysteries; and then they are taken captive by the devil, and led by his will down to destruction. Now this is what is meant by the chains of hell. And Amulek hath spoken plainly concerning death, and being raised from this morality to a state of immorality, and being brought before the bar of God, to be judged according to our works. Then if our hearts have been hardened our hearts against the word, insomuch that it has not been found in us, then will our state be awful, for then we shall be condemned. #RandolphHarris 18 of 23
“For our words will condemn us, yea, all our words will condemn us; we shall not be found spotless; and our thoughts will also condemn us; and in this awful state we shall not dare to look up to our God; and we would fain be glad if we could command the rocks and the mountains to fall upon us to hide from his presence. However, this cannot be; we must come forth and stand before him in his glory, and in his power, and in his might, majesty, and dominion, and acknowledge to our everlasting shame that all his judgements are just; that he is just in all his works, and that he is merciful unto the children of humans, and that he has all power to save every human that believeth on his name and bringeth forth fruit meet for repentance. And now behold, I say unto you then cometh a death, even a second death, which is a spiritual death; then is a time that whosoever dieth in his sins, as to a temporal death, shall also die a spiritual death; yea, one shall die as to things pertaining unto righteousness. Then is the time when their torments shall be as a lake of fire and brimstone, whose flame ascendeth up forever and ever; and then is the time that they shall be chained down to an everlasting destruction, according to the power and captivity of Satan, he having subjected them according to his will. #RandolphHarris 19 of 23
“Then, I say unto you, they shall be as though there had been no redemption made; for they cannot be redeemed according to God’s justice; and they cannot die, seeing there is no more corruption. Now it came to pass that when Alma had made an end of speaking these words, the people began to be more astonished. However, there was one Antionah, who was a chief ruler among them, came forth and said unto him: What is this that thou hast said, that humans should rise from the dead and be changed from this mortal to an immortal state, that the soul can never die? What does the scripture mean, which saith that God placed cherubim and a flaming sword on the east of the garden of Eden, lest our first parents should enter and partake of the fruit of the tree of life, and live forever? And thus we see that there was no possible chance that they should live forever. Now Alma said unto him: This is the thing which I was about to explain. Now we see that Adam did fall by the partaking of the forbidden fruit, according to the word of God; and thus we see, that by his fall, all humankind became a lost and fallen people. And now behold, I say unto you that if it had been possible for Adam to have partaken of the fruit of the tree of life at that time there would have been no death, and the word would have been void, marking God a liar, for he said: If thou eat thou shalt surely die. #RandolphHarris 20 of 23
“And we see that death comes upon humankind, yes, the death which has been spoken of by Amulek, which is the temporal death; nevertheless there was a space granted unto humans in which he might repent therefore this life became a probationary state; a time to prepare to meet God; a time to prepare for that endless state which has been spoken of by us, which is after the resurrection of the dead. Now, if it had not been for the plan of redemption, which was laid from the foundation of the World, there could have been no resurrection of the dead; but there was a plan of redemption laid, which shall bring to pass the resurrection of the dead, of which has been spoken. And now behold, if it were possible that our first parents could have gone forth and partaken of the tree of life they would have been forever miserable, having no preparatory state; and thus the plan of redemption would have been frustrated, and the word of God would have been void, taking none effect. However, behold, it was not so; but it was appointed unto humans that they must die; and after death, they must die; and after death, they must come to judgment, even that same judgment of which we have spoken, which is the end. And after God had appointed that these things should come unto humans, behold, then he saw that it was expedient that humans should know concerning the things whereof he had appointed unto them; therefore he sent angels to converse with them, who caused humans o behold of his glory. #RandolphHarris 21 of 23
“And they began from that time forth to call on his name; therefore God conversed with humans, and made known unto them the plan of redemption, which had been prepared from the foundation of the World; and this he made known unto the according to their faith and repentance and their holy works. Wherefore, he gave commandments unto men, they having firs transgressed the first commandments as to the things which were temporal, and becoming as gods, knowing good from evil, placing themselves in a state to ac, or being placed in a state to act according to their wills and pleasures, whether to do evil or to do good—therefore God gave unto them commandments, after having made known unto them the plan of redemption, that they should not do evil, the penalty thereof being a second death, which was an everlasting death as to things pertaining unto righteousness; for on such the plan of redemption could have no power, for the words of justice could no be destroyed, according to the supreme goodness of God. However, God did call on humans, in the name of his Son, (this being the plan of redemption which was laid) saying: If ye will repent, and harden not your hearts, then I will have mercy upon you, through mine Only Begotten Son. #RandolphHarris 22 of 23
“Therefore, whosoever repenteth, and hardeneth not one’s heart, one shall have claim on mercy through mine Only Begotten Son, unto a remission of his sins and these shall enter into my rest. An now, my brethren, behold I say unto you, that if ye will harden your hearts ye shall not enter into the rest of the Lord; therefore your iniquity provoketh him he sendeth down his wrath upon you as in the first provocation, yea, according to his word in the last provocation as well as the first, to the everlasting destruction of your souls; therefore, according to his word, unto the last death, as well as the firs. And now, my brethren, seeing we know these things, and they are true, let us repent, and harden not our hearts, that we provoke not the Lord our God to pull down his wrath upon us in these his second commandments which he has given unto us; but let us enter into the rest of God, which is prepared according to his word,” reports Alma 12.1-37. O God, Almighty Father, bless and sanctify this sacrifice that you offered to the honor and the glory of thy name; and pardon the sins of Thy people, and give ear to my prayer, Lord, and forgive me all my sins. Through Christ our Lord. #RandolphHarris 23 of 23
