I live in a luxury building with a 24 hour doorman. I didn’t tip my first year in the building during the holidays (it’s also my first year in nyc). Am I in the minority? Asking if everyone tips?

What is an acceptable amount to tip?

Wow, before Christmas we had another poll here and I also talked to some people inmy building. People were giving $50-$80 dollars per doorman.

It’s never too late. Tip it will help. I moved to my apt in oct and still tipped all my doormen

I noticed my service got a tiny bit poorer ever since I didn’t tip.

It’s closer to if you’re client didn’t tip you personally for working but is still paying the company invoice. Tipping culture is dumb, and the fact I’m suppose to spend a whole paycheck on tipping in addition to paying rent is dumb. A couple hundred each? I have 8 doormen among the other workers. Management should be giving them a “bonus”. I’m already paying extra for the “luxury” aspect in my base rent

Im currently studying Industrial Engineering with a minor in management. I’m interviewing currently for consulting, and theres a VC course at my school that seems really interesting but I can’t fit it into my schedule without removing the last class I need for my minor. Would not getting that minor do any harm to me short or long term? Im thinking that if I end up at consulting especially no one will care about a management minor they’ll just look at the firm I worked for.

Looking at fee increases for 2021 tax compliance and probably going for 10% increase with most clients to account for increases to wage levels this year. I’m expecting to negotiate down to 5-8% on some clients. With producer price index at 8.6% I’m hoping to successfully sell clients on the reality of higher fees. Those that want to fire me over fees I feel ok losing clients with decreasing profitability that can be replaced within a year. What kind of increase are you pursuing?
