That is the case.I do not get reimbursed for grattuities of any type-except the once a year holiday "thank you"handshakes/cards.
I feel lucky to not be questioned on my expense report(never cheated on it either)and thus just because I do not get reimbursed I do not take that out on the person being tipped.
HOWEVER-because it comes out of my pocket I probably use more common sense in this matter than someone who can expense it.
