Most large cities around the world is run that way without large percentage of tipping, you know, the 'Mearican way. I attended a trade show last year at Vegas and decided to see Copperfield all by my lonesome self. Pulled in and my feet was really tired from waling all day and didn't feel like walking to and from self park. Even self park is 20 bucks or something like that so I pulled into the valet at the MGM Grand thinking it was free like it was in years past (what the hell was I thinking?)or the typical 20 bucks. It was 45 bucks. Ok, that was fine and slip the valet 5 bucks. The car was parked off to the side, 20 steps away. This dude looked at me and said, that's a little cheap. 10 is the normal tips for valets here. I was shocked a bit and tired but decided to ask for the tips back completely. These fooking people are so use to ask and you will receive. To top it off, he didn't even open the door for me. Got off and left the door open, didn't have to carry any luggage.
