Pretty sure in all of Canada, or at least Ontario, everyone makes at least minimum wage. You go to Wendy's or Boston Pizza, no one makes less than minimum. Why is it that I'm expected to tip at some but not others? Is a chip truck (where a tip is asked for) really different than McD?

My understanding is in the US, some people make $2 an hour and tips are expected. Then there's places like Ontario where a tip is also expected. Genuinely, why?

All this "pay your workers" nonsense should be true for fast food, grocery store workers, and everyone else who makes minimum yet they're not standing there with a tablet that "asks a few questions" every time you ask where the milk is.

They do make a really low base but are required by law to recieve at least minimum wage after tips. Some wait staff lie on their tips in order to avoid paying taxes on them, others lie because if their employer thinks they aren't getting enough tips to cover their pay, that they must be a bad employee.
