To a maid or a taxi driver: it became known which services Novgorodians leave the least tips for

A recent survey by online recruitment service SuperJob among economically active residents of Veliky Novgorod was devoted to the generosity of city residents. The authors of the study tried to find out who Novgorodians most often leave tips for.

As in other cities of the country, residents of the regional center support the widespread trend, rewarding mainly restaurant and cafe workers – 74% of respondents do so. At the same time, 30% of them noted that they always leave a tip, and 44% – sometimes. 58% reward taxi drivers with an additional ruble, 49% – couriers, 32% – hairdressers. Only 31% of respondents leave tips for gas station attendants and hotel staff.

It is noteworthy that Novgorodians usually leave the largest sums in hotels: on average, about 430 rubles, respondents specify that they tip mainly maids and porters in hospitality places. In cafes and restaurants, tips are left on average in the amount of 280 rubles, and in hairdressers - up to 180 rubles.

The average tip that Novgorodians leave for couriers is 80 rubles, for taxi drivers - 80 rubles, for gas station and car wash employees - 50 rubles.
