1039.  Tip Everyone

Carry a wad of one dollar bills and start tipping people for doing anything even remotely polite or helpful.  When someone holds the door open for you, or holds the elevator so you can get in,  slip them a dollar and say “this is for the kids,’ or “for your trouble.”  Some other great chances are at the end of a job interview, at the bank, or dealing with government or school bureaucracy.  Never tip more than a dollar, and remember never to wink!  The wink is what separates a weird tip from a cheap bribe!  It’s great to be known as a good tipper, but you never want people to think of you as a bad briber.
