Tipping Points

On a recent trip to Vermont I was informed by the reception staff while checking in that the hotel did not provide housekeeping services. This struck me as odd, but I shrugged it off, as I was staying at a small inn in rural Vermont, not the Four Seasons George V in Paris. Upon entering my room, I was shocked to see this small envelope placed on the top of the dresser.

("This envelope is provided if you would like to leave something for housekeeping")
