Lately, whenever I turn on the fan (not even the AC necessarily), a tangy smell like Elmer's School Glue or caulk comes out of the vents. The mechanics at Firestone don't recognize the smell.
Many salon workers face low wages, so tipping is their means of making ends meet. (And on that note, if you suspect your salon has poor conditions for its employees, report it to your local public advocate's office.) Tip 20% for a standard manicure, more if you feel your service was exceptional.
Tipping for a Massage. If you get a massage at a spa or hotel, a 15 to 20 percent tip is standard if you were pleased with the services. On the other hand, there are no real ground rules or norms when it comes to massage in a medical setting. Tipping may not be appropriate in a medical or clinical setting.
