      They tipped because they got an individual baggage handler to go find their specific bag for them…

      That wasn’t their job, they did it out of kindness. Kindness can deserve a tip. There was no obligation

      We tipped under no obligation, the guy specially went out of his way for me, and I thought that was special.

      The guy literally salvaged a whole day of vacation for me

        And that is exactly the point of tipping, at least for me. It’s like a reward for extraordinary service

          I don’t come from somewhere with a tipping culture, but if someone came to me with an airtag tracker and said hey can you get my bag, and my job is to get your bags, I would happily just do my job instead of thinking “fuck you” and start to fight.

          Shit I would even apologise for having lost it in the first place.

          It would not even occur to me that someone would tip, or I would be getting one.
