Make It Worth Your Tips

In most hotels and restaurants, there is a common happening between two people, a hotel or casino client and a bellboy or a porter. A guest registers at the hotel and behind him are his traveling bags on a luggage carrier pushed by a porter. The guest is escorted to his room. Now the porter lifts the guests luggage on a leather strapped table. After this the porter follows and places the luggage on a sturdy table. After this the porter makes a move to suggest that his services are done. The guests senses this and hands him a tip.

This tipping is a normal and acceptable norm at all hotels unless and accepted norm for all hotels unless it is prescribed by management that tipping is not allowed. The scenario between the house guest and the porter is closed. Next the room boy knocks and enters the room to check that the beds are uncovered, the curtains drawn, and the comfort room checked for towels. He says "good morning sir" and the guests pokes at his pocket and hands him a tip. These tips are considerations for a service well done to the satisfaction of the guest. When a guest disregards to tip the hotel room boy will simply walk out saying "have a good day Sir".
