I agree....tipping our "service people" has ALWAYS increased the level of service..whether it be, lots of fresh flowers in the room, our rooms done early and CLEAN!...and extras we have asked for, we got....the second time we return to a food service, we are given the "extra mile" in service, quality, and quantity....but that's they way we do it at home, when we go out......

But then we also "waste" our money by buying Christmas meals in restaurants for people who do look like, or seem to be unable to afford it.......
we are not "well-off" by any standards, but we feel what we give out isn't gonna make that much difference in our lives..
but might for those who seem to need it.........

and I have seen very few Jamaican service people appearing not to need it........Thank God we are all different..or nobody
would have a place to go "get away from it all"...lol
