From my perspective, gas attendants are generally courteous, thoughtful, and willing to give you a helping hand when docking, so why not give them a dollar or two? To make my point even more clear, when a gas attendant does do all of the aforementioned things and does them well, will a couple more dollars added to your $100+ gas bill really hurt? In no way does that mean that because you can afford the tip I should receive it. Tipping is supposed to be an incentive to go that extra step when providing service to a customer, so when we do go that extra step I think that someone who has a boat and fills it up can afford the tip.
