On the other hand, skycaps at MDW make it no secret that they expect a tip. Stiff one there and they will make a comment. But I'm sure they won't follow you into the terminal.
At MCI the guy at curbside check in, repeatedly announced that they work on tips. I always tip anyways, so its fine by me. And after tipping I do hate to see the pikers stiff the guys saving them time and providing a convenience
If you don't want to tip, for curbside service, then I strongly suggest you should stand in the line inside for the 15-45 minutes and earn the money you saved by not paying someone to do something for you.
I am aware that everyone in the second world thinks tipping should be outlawed,
But no one says you have to use the service. Schlep yopur own bags, go to a cafeteria or drive through. I am quite confident you want to get paid for your services.
