Summer 1970-71-72
(the good old days)
I worked 3 part time SUMMER jobs as an enterprising teen.
Weekdays I was a swim instructor at a girl scout camp (cedar hill)
Weekends I worked as an afternoon lifeguard at town of Dennis (cape cod) beaches
AND
as a chambermaid weekend mornings
@ DennisShores cottages.

OMG was the chamber maid job the worst of the worst.
I only did it for the tips. There was NO real pay, just tips.

If all of us could be a bed stripper, floor washer and a toilet/bathroom scrubber we might all tip more generously.

Aruba Hotel/resort housekeeping employees get the equivalent of $3 per hour and the rest of their compensation is TIPs.

There should be a more "universal/standardized" procedure in tipping.

A few extra dollars passed out to deserving folks now and again is the norm.
