Poll: Business Owners Tipping

Did you or will you tip vendors that own their business?

Re: Poll: Business Owners Tipping

yes, i think this all depends...for example there are make up and hair vendors who work for themselves but not like they have a company or anything like that, they just work for themselves so i will definitely tip them

same with photographer...A couple of the photojournalistic photographers work for themselves...Not like they own some big company or anything like that...all expenses for them are out of pocket

i also personally like to tip all vendors just to show appreciation for their work

this is up to you though

Good point.

I plan on tipping all of my vendors, but FH and I don't agree on that or the amounts. I'm trying to figure what is standard so I can present my argument to him

Thanks!

All of my vendors own their businesses, except the limo. Even my banquet manager is in the family that owns the RH. We're throwing out tips like mardi gras beads anyway.

Yes, I always tip no matter owner or not, thats just me, I would feel weird if I didnt

That's too funny ... I'm going to have to steal that line from you!

Thanks for everyone's responses. It looks like it's evenly split, so I don't have much of an argument for FH I feel more comfortable tipping everyone on performance anyway, so I'll just try to sell that to him.
