Tipping etiquette

I'd tip 15%. But can't you charge the employer for the tip as well?

And if you don't know what the value of the drive to the airport is (like if you never sign a voucher or anything) I'd tip $5.

I tip cabbies in proportion to the amount of work they do. If I have a bunch of heavy suitcases that they help me with, I sweeten the tip. If its just a straight drive, I give 15%.

I note that tipping.org doesn't mention the appropriate amount to tip a cabbie or bellman who fix you up with a hooker. Does that fall under the concierge's "special services" item?
