Re: tipping cab drivers in boston


why does it matter to tip them so well? it's not like they give great service and you'll never see that cab driver again. And I'm with newtreads: some of them (albeit the minority) take the long way around or do it off the meter and make up the fare

I used to tip 15-20% to cab drivers, but now it just feels like a waste of money, so whatever $1 + change comes out to, becomes the tip.
