I doubt he makes a salary. He probably makes an hourly wage, which is supplemented by the tips that he gets from airline crews. Ask him who tips and who doesn;t, and you'll probably learn something about the company you are in.
No one is wrong or right for tipping. Ty Webb, don't pass judgement on others it's really "LOW CLASS!"
If the van is on time, and the bags are handled properly, a tip is customary, unless you are a person with no class, IMHO.
PS., this subject is covered during Indoc, at least it was when I went through. I wondered what kind of person would need to have it spelled out for them . . . now I know.
So, where did you grow up? Did you travel much with your parents (I mean by air, or ship, not by bus)? Did they tip? Just curious.
