How much do you typically tip your landlord/leasing company when you pay rent? My rule of thumb is a 15% base, 20% if they performed maintenance recently, and 30% for the holidays. But my girlfriend says she never tips less than 25% and that I'm being incredibly rude by tipping any less. Am I crazy here or have I been under tipping this whole time???

>tipping your landlord
Probably the most cucked shit I've heard in a long time. This is not a thing where I live (major U.S. city). You tip the building superintendent $20-50 at Christmas. My Uncle told me tipping your landlord was standard practice here around 30 years ago but it was basically just a bribe to secure your apartment. This tip was equivalent to 1 month of rent. No one does this shit anymore though.

Oh wait this is bait and I took it hook, line and sinker. This was actually a thing back in the day though. A 2 bedroom apartment went for around $200 then. That same apartment would probably go for $1600 minimum now, and the neighborhood in question is far less white than it used to be.

But how much should I tip the gym receptionist?

Generally the rule is 25% of your deadlift weight, I think. That's what I've been going with anyway.

How much do you typically tip your tax collector/government when you pay tax? My rule of thumb is a 15% base, 20% if they've paved the roads recently, and 30% for the holidays. But during diversity training my boss said good employees never tip less than 25% and that I'm being incredibly rude by tipping any less. Am I crazy here or have I been under tipping this whole time???

How much do you typically tip your brain surgeon when they excise a malignant neoplasm from your skull? My rule of thumb is a 15% of their student loans base, 20% if they're actually in my insurance network, plus some McDonald's coupons for the holidays. But at the firing range my priest told me good christians never tip less than 25% and that I'm being incredibly rude by tipping any less. Am I crazy here or have I been under tipping this whole time???
