Canadians and Americans usually tip in places like restaurants, airports, hotels and hair salons because
many people who work in these places get low salaries. A tip shows that the customer is pleased with the
service.
At airports, porters usually get a dollar tip for each bag. Hotel bellhops (男侍) usually get a dollar for
carrying one or two suitcases. A hotel door attendant (服务生) gets about a dollar for getting a taxi for
people. Many people also tip hotel room attendants, especially when they stay in a hotel for several days.
They usually leave a dollar for each day.
The usual tip for other kinds of services--for example, for taxi drivers, barbers, hairdressers, waiters
and waitresses-is between 10 and 20 percent of the bill. The size of the tip depends on how pleased the
customer is. In most restaurants, the check does not include a service charge. If the group is large,
however, there may be an added service charge. There is no tipping in cafeterias (自助食堂) or fast-food
restaurants.
