A tenant told how she tipped her doorman but he said he never got it and now she’s feeling icky about it.

@kelseybarbario told her followers on TikTok how she didn’t know how much was enough to actually even tip a doorman.

But she’s also experiencing the fear after tipping last Christmas and her doorman calling her to say he never got it! Ouch.

She said: “I live in a doorman building and in the holidays we are expected to tip the staff. I’m perpetually living in fear that these people will think that I am cheap. I really don’t know what is considered a good amount to give these people you see every single day.”

She continued: “Last year… I had the check I gave my doorman stolen. We still don’t really know what happened. All I know is I hand delivered the check to somebody at the front desk and a few days, or weeks later, I got a call from one of my doorman and he’s like, ‘Hey, you didn’t give us a Christmas check.’

She added: “Also, that’s so bold to call about that. Like, I would never I’d be like, Oh, I assume they don’t want to. I obviously wanted to I gave them money. And I was like, ‘No, I literally have no idea what you’re talking about’. And I thought that they just were calling to tell me maybe that it wasn’t enough money.”

She added: “Again, I’m living in this fear that they’re going to think I’m cheap, but no, it comes out that they have no idea where the check is. So, I checked my bank, and it had been deposited and somebody’s lying to me. And I don’t know who. I don’t think it was the doorman who called though, I really don’t think it was his fault. It was kind of a lot of money.”

Hmmm…

So, what happened?

She said: “So, I was stressed and so I looked in my bank account and yeah, it had fully been deposited somewhere.”

Yeah, this is a weird one.

Needless to say, tipping culture is getting out of hand.

I wish it would all just go away.
