I usually tip everyone. I tip restaurant servers and cabdrivers and delivery people and if I get my hair done. Even if someone is not really good I still tip them something, and if they're really good I tip more. I have a feeling that most people who don't tip are people who have never had that type of job. I had this one acquaintance in AZ who grew up with her parents paying her way through one school after another, she never worked any 'service' jobs and she was adamant that she wouldn't tip unless she got exemplary service. I even caught her pocketing a tip I had left when we went to lunch together once! 
I mean especially since when I was living in Phoenix going to school I decided to take a part time job as a waitress, at the interview the owner of the restaurant said something like, "Our normal wage is two but since you have experience we can start you at two-fifteen" and I was thinking, "...he can't mean $2 an hour...? It's not 1950!" But that's exactly what they meant - AZ being a 'right to work' state, at some restaurants you're expected to make minimum wage WITH your tips.
Of course I didn't take the job, and after that I tipped even more.
