Tips for tipping stewards

From page 30 paying everything. You settle-up at

_ the end of the cruise. Just add 15

per cent onto each chit.

In bygone days when ships were simply transportation, passengers often handed the staff $25 or so at the beginning of the crossing with the femark, ‘‘Take good care of us and there'll be more where that came froim.’’

Today, you'd be the laughing

stock of the entire ship’s company if you tried that stunt.

And now, just to show you how optional tipping isn't, a story:

I've only once had really poor service on a ship. On a crossing between Buenos Aires and Genoa we had a cabin steward that was awful. He snooped in our cabins when we were out — rooting through dresser drawers and such. He entered cabins unannounced,

especially if he had reason to believe you’d just stepped out of the shower,

He had beady little eyes and groping little hands. It got so bad that I spoke to the purser about him.

All the passengers in our section decided that we'd teach him a good lesson so when the last day arrived we just ignored him — he didn't get a penny.
