at least $5
I am one of those people who tips at least $5 everytime and hell, I have the crappiest boat on the lake. This being said, I have never had a bad experience with a dockhand. They have always been polite and are mostly excited when I pull up to the pump. (I usually go to West Alton for my gas Great folks over there) Some of my generosity may be due to the fact that they are getting me at a good time. I mean I am on the boat out on the lake, there are few times that I am happier. Anyway, I don't care if the kids use the money for school books or drugs, that's thier business, but I do feel there is an obluigation to tip if the service is at least average, since many of these jobs build that into the compensation plan.
