As one who actually pumped gas for a number of years, a HUGE number of years ago, helped dock, helped launch, changed oil, cleaned up after the “Barbershoppers”, OK we did pump a bilge full of gas ( hey, we were young and the customer was great looking). I don’t ever remember getting a tip. We did pump some good sized tanks and without automatic nozzles.

I have my own 200 gallon boat and I don’t tip. I just never think of it, isn’t it part of the job? I don't do it to be mean or cheap, it has just never occurred to me. I hope my kids don't read this, I can guess what they'll say.
