I wouldn't tip him, but then again I typically do not tip.

Tipping is getting really out of hand. There's no reason to tip the cable guy.

I always tip people like that but that's only because I feel guilty not tipping. I feel like they expect it. But it annoys me every time.

Am I supposed to tip...
This is my philosophy on tipping. If I can afford it I tip.
When goig to a restaurant I always tip a little bit more. If my breakfast was $12 I will leave $20. I know what it was like to work on your feet all day. I know what it was like to work for ONLY tips and commission. The extra 2 or 3 dollars to me won't make. Huge impact in my life. However it makes a big difference to them.
Same with the cable guy. I won't give $20, but I certainly would give him $10.
But that's me. Do you HAVE to no? Are you obligated? No.

This!
I am so tired of handing out $10 and $20 to everyone who comes to my house. I run through serious money sometimes, just to tip people who I also have to pay, and pay handsomely in many cases. I think if someone goes above and beyond, then a tip is in order, otherwise, it's their job.

Why would anyone tip the cable guy??? They don't work for tips. I only tip people why make their primary income on tips. It's out of control.

Seriously, with the balls have charging what they do I'm sure he gets paid enough no offense to anyone who's married to a cable guy

Exactly. These guys are salaried. They don't work off tips like waiters, bartenders, hairstylists, etc.
