I try not to peek either, but sometimes, I'll admit to sneaking a quick peek, if I'm sure no one is around looking . I'll admit I've had my share of surprises though. Sometimes its the richest ones (where I had put out 500% of myself) who give me a meager tip, or none at all, while other people who I'd least expect can really afford it, give me a $100+ tips. You just really never know. When performing for private affairs, I never go in with the attitude of expecting a tip, as I always negotiate the contract to cover the amount I expect. Tips are just icing on the cake. Ok, can I peek NOW?!
