Maids.....

I can't speak for vegas, but out here in AC
-room attendants(maids) start at minimum ($7 and change per hr)
-they are given an avg of 2 rooms/hr (16 per day)
-people don't realize/appreciate how much work is required to clean a single room

If EVERYONE (each room) tipped $2 she will make a grand total of $11/hr or 22k/year...... throw in the simon/curtis types of the world and....... yeah it gets even uglier for her....

Seriously guys..... you can forego two .25 hands and give her 2.50
or even four .25 hands and give her a fiver

Not tipping the maid is shameful

then go tip at starbucks burger king and every place that has a tip jar. if they provide extra service like bringing extra soap a tip is appropriate

Why would you need extra soap? Anyone this cheap probably doesn't shower very often.

LOL! "Curtis types" make it uglier for maids! :slight_smile: What a hoot!

Personally, it makes not one bit of difference to me what the
hotel maids are earning. I had nothing to do with their choice
of employer. I am in no way responsible for their wages.
If you feel it's necessary to tip hotel maids, please tip them!
I couldn't care less.

I will not be guilted into tipping someone....just because others
do. I will only tip when *I* think it's appropriate. And, certainly
not just when vocal members of this group think it's appropriate.

I'm not being rude. I just have a differing opinion.

BTW, maclarenv12, I am not ashamed about not tipping maids.
If I were, I would never have posted it for the whole world to see.
But, of course, you are entitled to your opinion.

Curtis
