No offense Acupuncture. I'm referring to Australian taxies. Cubase is Aussie, and in Australia we don't tip. However in Sydney since it's an international hub, the practice is growing because of this outside influence. Unlike the US our bar thenders etc are paid higher wages. There is no need to tip in Australia. However on the odd occasion if someone does an exceptional job then I guess there is nothing wrong. As I said, I tipped in the US! Only sometimes I wasn't sure where I should or should not.
