But recently I was on vacation and we took a cab from one hotel to another, at no time during loading/unloading did the driver even offer or attempt to help us with the bags, and to boot he left the meter running while digging around for his credit card paper. So I put a strike through the tip line and stiffed him, which he called me on so I just "Well next time help with the bags and stop the meter when the ride is done".

Was I out of line? Meter running aside, do you expect help with the bags when you have em? Or is the ride enough?
Seems like he just did his job and didn't go out of his way to provide any extra service. I wouldn't have tipped.
