Deputy's Guide to Tipping Protocol

A Code of Conduct for Those Who Serve

As a deputy of discerning taste and refined sensibilities, it is your duty to understand the intricacies of tipping in various social situations.

Tipping for Services Rendered

Avoid tipping for services that are clearly part of your employment contract, such as:

• Maintenance work: You're paying them to fix things, not to fix their self-esteem.
• Emergency response: You're paying them to save your bacon, not to massage your ego.

When in Doubt, Tipping is a Suggestion, Not a Demand

Remember, tipping is a sign of appreciation, not an obligation. Unless you're at a restaurant, in which case it's an unwritten rule of the universe.
