Here in Australia,tipping is not so much expected, though some people do, tip.

My basic premise is this.

If I feel I have enjoyed beautiful food, if I have been served with kindness and respect, and if my cab arrives on time, I am more than happy to tip.

Really enjoyed this story Robin, and for the life of me do not understand why you had but three comments.

By the way, I always advise people to use all five tags. In your case you have three. This happened to me, would have been a perfect one. And how about psychology??? It's a stretch, but hey, you never know where it might go, just like you money, Robin. Curmudgeons unite. We are all in this together. 😂😂😂
