Default Re: Why are Las Vegas cabbies so weird about tips?

[ QUOTE ]
seems that everyone balls hard. I'm going to assume that everyone that doesn't ball hard is embarrassed and doesn't post. I don't understand the logic of people though. "what's the difference for an extra buck or two". BECAUSE AN EXTRA BUCK OR TWO CAN BUY ME STUFF! Just b/c you blow money and probably don't shop around for purchases, order used books, etc, doesn't mean everyone that tips 15% it a nit that hates humanity.

you are a huge nit - whether or not you hate humanity is up for debate.

i think the two sides in this thread are:

'i don't care how much i tip cabbies because i only take ~10 cab rides a year'

and 'i take cab rides rather often, and over-tipping means i am costing myself a fair amount of money over the course of a year'.

I imagine Vegas cabbies are used to fools who come out to their city simply to spend money, so they're not used to people being nits on tips.
