How Much Do You Tip The Driver?



Recommended Posts

I will be picked up from San Diego airport, taken to Tijuana Mexico & back.

Plus I will also be getting my teeth whitened, which involves 2 trips to the dentist, which the driver will take me to.

Was thinking $50. Is that enough? Too much? I really don't know & want to give the driver a nice tip!

I think 10 each way from SD to TJ, and 5-10 for round trip from the dentist is fair :) so, 30

Thanks I sent her a PM to ask about her experience. I am also using Dr Kelly, so would think it was the same dentist.

I tipped 15 each way from SD to TJ and back. I would say 10 round trip for each dental appt. The driver seemed very happy with my tip though so maybe my overtipping thing extended to this. (I always leave 25% on a table, much to my bfs chagrin)My driver was awesome though, pointed out interesting sites, joked around with us and was very good at keeping us all talking to him and eachother so we wouldn't be nervous.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
