Coat Check Tipping in the Recession
I have worked coat check for five seasons and it does upset me when a number of people do not check their coats but what is worst is checking your coat and not tipping. The coat check staff hustles for those tips and we deserve to be treated as generously as the wait staff. I work coat check because I need that extra money to survive. Giving up my evenings to hustle for a job is upseting when the night is not lucrative. I get home about 1 or 2 in the morning and must wake up at 6:30 to go to my full time job. So for those who tip I say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Perhaps someday I will get out of my own economic crisis that I have been dealing with for the past 13 years. Coat check staff get paid a very small hourly wage, just like a server.

It is so true about how cheap women are, especially when they are in groups. Yet they are the most demanding. Like nycues indicated, the job is hard work. It is not easy to stand on your feet for 8 hours while running back and forth w/no break all night to check coats. Celebraties are really cheap too. Only a handful will tip. Some of them don't even tip the wait staff.
