What is the tipping etiquette on the free platinum breakfast in a JW Marriott? The server just gets coffee / orange juice and you serve yourself. It is an overpriced buffet that I would never dine in.

On a side note, from an outsider’s perspective, tipping culture in the US is mind boggling in general... excellent service can come without tipping, look at 🇯🇵

I usually leave around $5 bucks.

I typically ask for a zero dollar room charge so that I can add the tip to my overall hotel bill. Makes it easier to tip because I don’t typically have cash.

I would leave a few bucks on the table ($3-5). Someone still has to clean up after you.

I usually leave $5/person if I have the cash on me

I mean you can typically expense the tip, so why not err on the side of generosity?

Unless it is complementary like with platinum. 20% on it like $10 in tip for two. Thoughts?

I usually just leave a dollar. Easy enough.

I leave like $2. Reading the responses maybe I should up it to $5

A3 - thx I keep forgetting and just absorb it in my perdiems

Like $3-5 bucks

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.
