I'm moving to Japan and will be living in an apartment building with valet parking. (Self-park is not possible in the garage.) Nice to know I won't need to tip every time I drop off or pick up my car.
What about annual bonus or gift (for New Year or some other festival?)? Is it customary to hand a small gift or money to service staff (building manager, receptionist, gym attendant, parking attendants, etc.) once a year? In Hong Kong, for Chinese New Year, we'd have to hand out numerous 'lai see' (lucky money) envelopes to everyone who's served us during the year.
