Best Answer

You leave a tip to servers because it is generally understood that their pay doesn't reflect the amount of work they do. Part of this understanding is that employers know that servers receive tips to supplement their income! Tips are generally to show the server that you know she/he did a good job, and maybe even an extra-special job. However, don't confuse the work of the server with the quality of the food or drink that you receive. The server isn't also doing the work of the cooks and bar tenders. If a server does well, leave a good tip. If the service is poor for some reason, leave a smaller tip.

How much do you tip a milk man?

The milkman provides a service weekly, rain, snow etc and is not a federal govt worker so you should tip them. Question: do you tip food delivery service to your home? I do, usually $3 each time they deliver. You should figure out a percentage to tip them weekly per your usual standing order: for example, if you only get 2 bottles a week, your tip should be less than someone who gets 10 bottles a week. 10% for mediocre service, you have to call and get your order corrected with up to 20% of your annual bill for excellent service. Or figure the weekly amount you would tip a food delivery service. In our area, our milkman delivers at night so these guys are out in cold/snowy weather at night bringing something directly to our door--they deserve to be tipped just like any other food delivery service
