Yeah, I’m not tipping counter service. That’s ridiculous. And I’m not tipping for bad service. I was a server long enough to know not everyone deserves a tip. However, I will tip for amazing service. A good server is incredibly under appreciated, and they should be tipped well. Very cool video

We agree that most counter service isn't tip-worthy. And that not all servers earn the tips we give them. But, we always leave something, usually more than they deserve. It's just ingrained. Thanks for watching and commenting :)

I think you guys got played on a few of these. No cashier at a fast food joint realistically thinks they are going to get a 20% tip. Same with the dealers, if you win $100, you aren't throwing the blackjack dealer $20.

@TheMidlifeRide 3 года назад

We agree those answers don’t seem right, but we’re just reporting what they said. It seems the opinions get a little out of whack in places you’d expect a lower percentage of actual tippers. If everyone tipped, or even most people, the workers wouldn’t need to rely so heavily on the few that actual do tip. But, yeah, we can’t be expected to tip extra to make up for the people who don’t tip at all. Oh, and as for that cashier and her co-worker - they were an interesting pair. She barely spoke English and he had a whole argument about why they deserve as much as waiters. He was very passionate about it and absolutely determined to convince us.

Great video and people need to see this! I'm always confused at the bell desk if I should tip at drop off AND pickup. I guess so! Not sure about the counter service, definitely not 20% .

@@chuckh4077 As someone who has been a dealer before, we appreciate the small tip from the losing guest just as much, if not more than the ones from winners. The dealer obviously doesn't get a cut of the player's losses, so we're actually rooting for them in every instance.

my mom used to clean hotels back in the day as one of her first jobs and she always leaves tip for the cleaning crew in the room. she says its just more of the courtesy and that it is physical labor job that goes often unnoticed. its insane how much gross and random things they do have to clean/handle.

@TheMidlifeRide 3 года назад

Agreed! I (Cat) cleaned rooms at several motels/hotels in my late teens/early 20s. It is not easy work and can definitely be gross at times. In addition to tipping, we do try to leave the room in pretty good shape to help them out.

@andrews7245 2 года назад

I would say a good way to calculate a tip for table games dealers, is to divide a decent hourly wage($20-$30) by how many seats, divided by length of stay per hour. Say if you're at a black jack or roulette table for 45 minutes and there's six players; $3-$5 would be an acceptable tip from someone who lost money. If you lose money gambling and don't tip even a little bit for the dealer's time, that would be the equivalent to not tipping a server because the chairs are uncomfortable.

THANKS for putting this out!!!! FYI, most tipped employees in Vegas(bellman, valet, bartenders, all types of servers, ect.) are TAXED BY THE IRS on a set amount of tips they make daily based on their job positions WHETHER OR NOT they make that amount or NOT. CASHIERS do not fall in that category, so I found that bit of info from that cashier you spoke to rather ridiculous😂

We were hoping you'd see this and provide your expertise :) That is very interesting about the taxes. We had no idea. That hardly seems fair.

@andrewobourn7961 3 года назад

I would say for dealers tip the same amount, like $5-20 depending on the dealer, no matter what your win size is. If you do it percentage base, it will lower your chances of walking out positive over the long run if every time you win you are giving up 20%. Poker is a bit different where the norm is tipping a dollar when a pot is pushed your way.

@TheMidlifeRide 3 года назад

Thanks for the info! Yeah, we don't think we'd tip based on percentages when gambling. Unless they start giving me receipts with the percentages listed at the bottom like they do in restaurants! We have a hard time with math when we're drinking and playing :) A flat rate tip per session seems like the way to go.

I worked in retail for 50 years with NO tips so I respect what these awesome people go through. Just want to hit on a couple of things that may give you a smile. Drinks… I remember when I was staying at The Mirage in 2012 I was playing slots and got my usual Jameson on the rocks. The drink came and I tipped $5. I was winning and wasn’t leaving anytime soon and ordered another drink and it was really like a triple drink! Well worth another 5!! Also my husband always tips very generously when he plays roulette. And alway tip housekeeping. They work hard. $5 a day if they change the room. Tipping keeps everyone happy!!

@TheMidlifeRide 3 года назад

You're awesome, Mary Ann! We had no doubt you'd be a generous tipper. It is so nice when the staff member appreciates the tips and rewards you with even better service (strong drinks) after.

The only place I went where tipping was the standard is Tijuana, Mexico. About the street performers and Showgirls (almost all the Showgirls are so-called street performers and aren't promoting a show), you're not obligated to tip or engage with the performers. If you tip a street performer $20 and you're new to Vegas, that's on you.

@TheMidlifeRide 3 года назад

It's true that no one is obligated to tip anyone. This is just what they request. We've heard others quoted double the amount they told us. They are just trying to get as much as possible but, ultimately, it's up to the individual.

We don’t mind tipping when service is above and beyond. But, when we tip for poor or average service because we feel obligated to do so, it can be a bit frustrating. Especially when prices are already so high.

@be_obee9024 7 месяцев назад

Tipping culture in the US is getting to be excessive. I save ALOT of money by not tipping in Vegas. One should not have to tip simply for someone doing their job. That creates an entitlement mentality and you get a pay check for doing your job. When I pay for a hotel room, it comes with a service. Why should I pay extra for something I already paid for? That’s foolish. No, consider a tip for when service is above and beyond what you paid for.
