I did say i was going to up the tip to $5.
Also, what I do for a living couldn't possibly be less relevant to this discussion. It is the responsibility of the employer to adjust wages to market and this has little bearing on the gratuity left for the dock hand. Do you increase your tips to servers every year in response to inflation?
