• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Who gets tipped? Who should you tip? What's the best
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: practices for end of the year tipping? You know, it's one
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: of these things a lot of service workers. This comes
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: from my key access question.
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: It's a great question.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: Garbage garbage man, valet Parker, Like if you live in
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: a building that has the valet Parkers, those guys concierge service.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: If you live in a building but then it goes
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: down teachers, Yeah, and then at what age do you
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: like preschool teacher stuff like that? Are you are you
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: giving money to your your son's high school teacher? Like
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: what who really needs an end of year monetary gift?
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: Well, Valet for sure, shout to the guys Dorman.
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: For sure, because they keep a lot of chaos away
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: teachers if they are a good teacher.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: So age, what age teacher, I.
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: Don't know, but but the ones that I've had has
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: been now first through fifth. For Xander, I like his teacher,
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: his primary teacher a lot, so I definitely give him
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: something tomorrow better fact so, but I think it depends
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: on But even in preschool, they you may think that
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: they were not doing a lot, but when I would
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: just popping, they were. And then it was a family
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: run daycare. They're do a really good job. So I
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: brought some stuff up there for Christmas too, and then
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: cleaning ladies like that's like my second family. They make
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: my life so much easier. So those are the ones
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: that I take care of in my circle. Valet, Doorman, teacher,
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: house manager.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: And it depends on if you live in an apartment
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: or if you live in a home too, because sanitation,
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: that's a home thing.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: That's a private home thing.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, if you live in an apartment, you don't see
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: a sanitation worker, so that's not even a thought. If
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: you live in a home, then yeah, the sanitation guys
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: come and you know they come every Wednesday. They pick
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: up the trash, you know, so that's a more personable thing.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: So I think it depending on life because a valet parker,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: like I said, if you live in a building, that's important.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: That's a close relationship.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the mailman, the mailman, maybe.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: It depends on the relationship.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Well, it also depends on the service.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: But you know, it's just like if you know, if
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: like I feel like the male man's is important.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: People who've been getting male like that anymore?
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Na, people still get male they get bills. But but yeah,
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: the male the male man.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: Barber, Oh yeah, Barbara for sure, Dave says.
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: Made that conversation go crazy about if they charging too much.
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: But definitely holiday time, you gotta take care of the barber.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: School bus drivers mm hm, that's the good one. The
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: school bus drivers.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Those guys are important or women, they're important because they
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: make sure your kid gets to to and from. Who
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: are you not tipping anybody that does a bad job
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: just because you do something. If you're a bad sanitation
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: worker and you always the trash is always on the lawn, No,
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: I'm not.
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: Tipping you because you just have horrible energy.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Orf. Yeah, if you're not a nice person. Yeah, but
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: if you do your job well, how much do you tip?
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: It depends on a relationship, to be honest, clean ladies,
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: they make my life so easy.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: Nice gift every year, you know, because this goes back
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: to the wedding thing. Remember we talked about wedding. A
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: lot of people don't know a lot of people, especially
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: unfortunately our community, they don't fully understand etiquette.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: A lot of times when it comes to weddings gifts.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: A lot of people don't fully understand etiquette when it
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: comes to year end gifts, tipping, holiday tips.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: They don't even know you.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: They don't even know you have to do that or
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: that is something that is you know, expected on a
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: certain level. Right, So it's it's not even that they're
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: trying to be cheap and the thought never crossed their
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: mind that to give a sanitation should work one hundred dollars.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but people also what my thing is to do
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: to others?
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: How you want them to do you so deep that
• 5:07
  Speaker 5: I think some people know, they just may not think
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: it's a requirement. Even in business, you should be sending
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: gifts out in the year for the people that are
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: taking care of you.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Bone well, that's bonus. You're in bonus.
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and a gift may not be bad in addition too,
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: so in combination if a person has been an exemplary
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: for you.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, But rule of thumb, anybody that anybody that you're
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: relying on, either on a daily or weekly basis, that
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: has a high level of customer service throughout the year,
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: it should be getting a tip. So if you if
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: you're relying on your on your sanitation worker, if you're
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: relying on your valet parker, if you're relying on your
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: concierge got your building, if you're relying on your on
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: your FedEx worker, if you're alying on your mail worker,
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: if you're a lying on your barber, if you're relying
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: on the lady that does your manicures, if if you're
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: relying on you know, your the bus driver to make
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: sure that your kid gets to it from school safely.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: If you're relying on a on a preschool teacher that
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: has to stay with the kids all day, every day,
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: and they don't get different classes. They only have one
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: group of kids for the whole entire day. Because A
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: you're thanking them, but B you're also having some level of,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: let's be honest, preferential treat treatment going forward. Yes, they're
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: gonna treat you better, paying in advance. Let's let's be honest,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: right Like I mean, it's just one of those things
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: like if you have one, they're going to make sure
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: that you get better treatment than everybody else because you
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: went over and above everybody else.
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: Especially in the restaurant.
• 6:42
  Speaker 5: I set them too, Like one way to get great
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: service is a tip as soon as.
