I didnt KNOW you were supposed to tip hotel housekeepers Yea I didnt even know housekeepers needed tips. This new info to me. ^this shit is news to me. Oh shit I didn’t know. Passing this along so people know as someone who worked for years as a hotel housekeeper PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE leave a MONETARY tip for your housekeeper EVERY DAY you stay in the hotel. The shit (sometimes literally) they see every day is ridiculous and they’re so under appreciated. Also You will most likely not have the same housekeeper every day so please don’t wait until the morning you check out to leave a tip. I usually tip $10 and write a little thank you note with a comment on something I noticed. Like ‘Thank you for taking care of my room and making the pillows extra fluffy!’ for people that also use showers at truck stops, the same thing applies. 90% of truck drivers get free showers so there’s NO reason to not leave a tip for the janitor. a few years ago people left tips fairly regularly, even if it was just a dollar or two (which adds up when you’re cleaning 40+ showers a day) and let me tell you from experience that those rooms are disgusting and not in ways you’d expect. janitors usually don’t make more than minimum wage and in my state that’s $7.25!!!!! that’s nothing! workers that clean up after us have to deal with so much and they deserve better! obviously they deserve raises from their companies but there’s NO reason we can’t all show appreciation with a few dollars tip also! Reblogging cause I had no clue we were supposed to tip. -- source link
