Now I don't feel so bad about my $2-3 typical valet tip. I will say it's VERY rare in this area to see a valet at a restaurant. The last few times I've seen it was at wedding venues. It's not like I don't tip appropriate amounts in other parts of my life - I tip my barber $10, I tip 20% at every restaurant, etc.
Side note: I just found out I have been WAY over-gifting ($) for weddings.
The more I think about it, the more I think that tipping a valet is dumb from go. That's not really a "level of service" type or job in the first place. They can't really go "above and beyond" or check back with you like a restaurant server. They just park your car. That's it. Makes no sense to pay extra for NOT completely fucking it up. They should be paid a real wage and call it a day.
