I've caught them doing that from time to time when I have to return to the room before the maid gets there and I notice the tip missing, but usually at stand-alone hotels. Haven't experienced it at a Marriott. (I'd think management would take action against the supervisor if it happened - sounds in theft, since the tip is clearly intended for the maid.)
