He draws a bacon to do his job and signed on for that salary-no more than unless the dealership gives him a payraise. If on the other paw he was paid as a waiter or waitress tips are expected as part of the salary but not the service author. I've never heard of tipping a service advisor and I've owned many new automobiles.

That said, I do tip the usual suspects.
