Never experienced that. I'd find that extremely tacky.

I do recognize you're just trying to troll but the idea that the front desk manager systematically executes revenge to guest who didn't tip housekeeping during previous stays is just too comical to deserve a rebuttal.

I wouldn't want to run a hotel either, so I guess the GM deserves a tip, too. I'd hate to frisk people so a hefty tip goes to the TSA gal. Actually there are hundreds of jobs I wouldn't want to do, apparently all deserving tips for that reason!
