Obviously one would tip a valet at a hostel, restaurant etc. But in San Francisco, the usual parking garage I use to see my tailor is now forcing everybody to utilize a valet (probably so they can stack more cars in what is a very tight garage). I've been hesitant to tip the valet because
a)I'm only paying about $3.50 for parking, and it doesn't make sense in my mind to tip 75-90% of the base price and I'd likely go elsewhere than pay $7 for 30min of parking
b) They're not picking up my car off the street, I still have to drive my car into the 2nd floor of the damn garage and stack it behind another car, and
c) It's a parking garage
That being said is there any rule one way or the other?
