I agree with the message here, but man does this anology fail with me. Hotel door men are just another pressure point for tipping for service I really don't want / need 99% of the time. An automatic door and a smart luggage cart that follows me to my room would be much preferred.
I think you might be confusing a doorman with a bellhop.
Nope. But that's another person I can happily do without
Sounds like you live in or travel to a shit country that doesn't pay their employees right. If the doorman or bellhop are relying on your tips to make ends meet, they need to unionize and demand better pay from their employers.
Are you in a managerial, c-suite, or office role at your company?
Reads an article about people falling for the doorman fallacy, immediately falls for the doorman fallacy.
I go to plenty of places don't have doormen and prefer the experience. Did you read the description of the fallacy? The doorman fallacy is based on c suite execs making a decision that they don't have personal experience with.
