To tip or not to tip...

I'm moving and I just had cable installed and got the carpets cleaned so my question is, should I have tipped the cable guy or the carpet cleaner? I didn't and I'll feel bad if I should have but I will remember that for next time.
 
Pizza delivery yes, carpet cleaning no.
 
^I always tip the pizza guy and my tatoo artist but I wasn't sure about these two.
 
I divide things into 2 catagories.

Home repair/maintenance - anything to do with general maintenance to house or home. Can include lawn care/grounds keeping, painting, plumbing, electrical or structural work done by a contracted service provider, no tip.

Personal services - Can include dry cleaning delivery, newspaper, resturant delivery, grocery, packages (Fedex, UPS) or one time things like the kid next door mowing the lawn, I tip.

Exceptions, USPS and trash collection, tips and cards around the holidays.
 
The UPS guy makes too much money to be tipped. I give them bottles of water in the summer, thats about as far as it goes.

That's a good idea, the water thing... You're one of the "good" customers, you'll get your shit on time.

A lot of them are lazy. If the person actually delivers the package to the door, I'll tip. But experience says they just drop the item in the driveway by the garage anyways. ;)
 
I, the great and frugal TROLL KINGDOM, have never tipped anyone in my life! Nor will I ever!
 
No one asked you crappy dual.
 
No tips for non service folks, like installers and delivery guys from parcel systems. Anything involving service however, like take out delivery is tipped.
 
**Is happy to live in a non-tipping society**
 
You fucking UKers dont get it.
 
It cost me $100 to have the cable guy come out here and install my cable. No tip. However, I do firmly believe in Boxing Day.
