I always show them where the tea and coffee is and leave biscuits out and ask them to help themselves.PlumBunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15489705644025517777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4298570407595087518.post-52363589354348298002010-03-17T21:20:33.331+00:002010-03-17T21:20:33.331+00:00My partner and I have argued over tipping/not-tipp...My partner and I have argued over tipping/not-tipping tradespeople as well. <br /><br />Having recently spent nearly 2 grand on having a new boiler I didn't feel any need to tip the guys (who were excellent).

We're still living in a building site, but we have lights in the bathroom now, at least. Doors promised by Friday.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10515040285870115973noreply@blogger.com
