Re: Tipping line help?
If they actually helped my then I will give them a few bucks, but I don't really believe in tipping people for doing their bare minimum job requirements.
One guy earned his tip with me once
Daniel at KDIJ (Driggs, Idaho): the AFD said that they were open till 8 pm, but they had just instituted winter hours that were not in the AFD yet. We landed at 6:30and I was close to not having enough fuel to get anywhere else and it was getting dark with tall mountains to climb over.
He was having a beer at the Warbird and saw us giving the "ah ####!" at the winter hours sign. He came out, opened up the hangar, pulled out the fuel truck, topped us off, then refused to charge us the after hours fee. He tried refusing the tip too, but I shoved that $50 into his pocket.
That kind of service gets a tip.
