Re: tipping w/other ppl\'s money (coworkers, boss)
Ask the person giving you the money how much you should tip.
Didn't want to start my own tipping thread, so here's my recent tipping issue: My doctor's office is in a big medical building. When you pull into the underground garage you're required to leave your car with the valet, they're right at the entrance. The doctor does not validate. I was there on Monday for 40 minutes and was charged $9 to park my car. Let me reiterate I did not choose to valet the car, I didn't have another choice. I did not tip the valet the extra $1, my wife said I was being a douche. Thoughts?

Re: tipping w/other ppl\'s money (coworkers, boss)
Results wise, both times I tipped what I felt like ($6 on the $31, $5 on the $24) and neither time anyone seemed to care/notice/be upset that I "overtipped" or whatever. I just wasn't sure if there was some unspoken business rule about tipping in these situations or not. I certainly wasn't going to ask my boss lol.

Re: tipping w/other ppl\'s money (coworkers, boss)
I usually tip 20% then round off to the next full bill. The $24 I would have tipped $6. The $31 I would have tipped $9 but I'd then give the boss back $5 from my own pocket. It really depends on where I work. If it is a smaller business then I might just tip $4.
I agree with the wife on the valet issue.
