You should be tipping anyone who does a good job whether or not you think it "serves" you. I was at a public urinal earlier and tipped the guy next to me for having a great pee. $5 might not mean much to you but it adds up over a day for them.

Tipping as a form of mutual aid

That's what I was trying to explain at the urinal but the pee champ ran away as soon as I tucked $5 in his shirt pocket and said "Damn big guy, you earned it". It could have been a community building moment but people are too caught up in their own lives.
