Re: Do you tip your postman, binmen etc?
Last Christmas in our last house I tipped the postman as he's a good lad, always put my post in the postbox outside on our wall, he's always cheery. Now weve moved the postman here is a miserable devil and I know him from years ago when I worked at the Telephone Exchange (a bit embarrassing really), I shan't be tipping him.Re: Do you tip your postman, binmen etc?
I know this isn`t seasonal, but Taxi drivers lately have been extracting the urine. Not opening the door or helping me with boxes, not even stopping outside the house properly - just stpping in the road and hooting at me. I have stopped tipping them unless they actually get off their bottoms and do something now, It`s my contribution to their BMI.Re: Do you tip your postman, binmen etc?
No, I never tip the postie nor the bin men anymore, I used to do so. I have had cause to complain about the postie several times this year for leaving "You were out" cards through the door, when I was at home and he never even bothered to ring the bell. These were items which I knew were to be delivered on a particular day and waited in for them. It meant that I had a three mile drive each way to the sorting office to collect the packets. No tip for him then.Re: Do you tip your postman, binmen etc?

Hmmm...... after reading all your replies I think I may reconsider the practice next year I suppose it's a case of old habits die hard.Re: Do you tip your postman, binmen etc?
Being in the boonies, we don't get mail delivered, or garbage picked up. So no tipping there!
