It looks like people are mostly against tip jars. SO, has anyone ever been offered a tip, and if so, did you accept or reject it?

UltimateTanSJ · 09-14-2006, 04:10 PM

I'll take it.

UltimateTanSJ · 09-14-2006, 04:10 PM

I haven't had a paycheck in 2 years.

HunyBunns · 09-14-2006, 04:13 PM

But have you been offered one... a tip, not a paycheck

UltimateTanSJ · 09-14-2006, 04:15 PM

Well.......No. Will you offer me one so I can say yes?

Don't eat the yellow snow.

People offer me tips pretty regularly, and we are a 'salon' just like a hair salon, and we offer personal service, so I am not opposed to the idea.

Do I take the tip? Uusally, tho I try to say no. I think its not so great for the owner to take a tip.

O! This reminds me... I have a policy (not a beloved one, but I think its ok) to let people use the bathrooms -- people off the streets who just need a toilet -- provided they aren't too shady looking. (then I say its out of order) So my assistant let a guy use it the other day and he gave her $2!!! And we joked that now we finally have a service that makes money, haha!

I'll answer my own question. I had a customer who was always late for his appointments but I would squeeze him in anyway (this was during busy season,) one day he paid for an upgrade and had $3 in change coming but he insisted I take it for being so good to him. I tried to tell him it wasn't necessary but he kept insisting so I accepted with a thank you.

Glo, that's kind of what I was thinking. We offer a personal service and also clean up after that service. I'm not saying I want to implement a tip jar by any means, I was just curious about the idea and figured I'd do a poll to see what the general consensus is/was.
