last valet i used curb checked my car and trashed my wheels. I took pics, sent him that it looks like one wheel was badly damaged. Once i had discount tire look at it , spot damage on the second wheel, the valet manager got short with me like he was offended he damaged my car.
Did i mention he begged and pleaded with me to take my car to "his" shop? Well, i decided to be nice and give them a call for a quote, and they quoted me a very large number to repair my wheels, with only about 40 bucks more to replace them completely, and he was upset again that i didnt choose his spot and that i wanted them replaced, and not repaired at his choice. I had to point out im not going to pay him and no doubt his cousin for the privilege for fucking up my car.
I had to get the restaurant GM involved, who tried to pull the "hey, they are an outside company" line , which was disappointing. I just pointed out they were representing the restaurant, and representing them -poorly- .
Tying this all back to tipping, yes, i tipped the valet. All the damage was done on the passenger side, which i didn't discover until next morning. Very nice of them to try to just pass it off and hope i wouldn't have noticed. The concrete dust smeared across a detail job on the tires i had done only 1.5 hours before dinner was all the evidence i needed.

You're probably not tipping enough.

Then I have to reset my trip to make sure it goes only as far as it has to.
It's a hassle.

I really hate places that force me to valet park. I have never liked valet parking.
It's a hassle.

And other evidence-
Now I know what you're saying -- "That is a racist untruth that does not dignify an answer, blah, blah, and blah...." -- but before folks get all indignant I have a story to tell.
