both sides are arguable. one behalf of someone that works for tips. i used to be a valet and avg was 2 bones a car. after being super polite holding the door and in some cases an umbrella or scrapin ice it hurts not to get a little something for my trouble. then again this is ravers who they are expecting to have money to throw around. i worked at a country club i knew the people had the cash to put forth and when they didn't it hurt but when there was a high school social or somthing i knew the kids weren't going to tip. so its like this they should know the ravers aren't going to have tons of cash to give away usually but then again it is what is somewhat expected. expected cause of what was mentioned earlier jobs lke bar tending and waitressin get paid less than minimum by employers because it is expected that they get tips. just fyi (i dunno about canada or anything) at my job tips were recorded and taxed also. so if i made 20 bucks in tips one night they would add that ammount to my taxable wages then take it back off cause i aready got the cash . so there is no excuse for being rude but then again when tips is your job and you realize your not going to make that much money one night i know how it feels.
