(This writer has even been prompted to tip for a car battery replacement from CAA, with a 20 per cent tipping suggestion on an over $400 service that took the contractor about 15 minutes to complete.) A few chimed in to note that since servers in Ontario now "make the same minimum wage as the cashier at Walmart" and "there isn't a servers' minimum wage anymore," there is no justification for tipping, especially at the exorbitant rates being asked. "I could justify paying tips when servers made less than minimum wage, and can justify one if a server improves my experience beyond expectations. I can even justify it if I travel into a city where people pay twice what I do just to exist," one person said. As the debate continues and the pushback to our arguably ridiculous tipping culture grows, it remains to be seen how many people are actually starting to act on their negative feelings about tipping when they reach the cash register.
