I never implied it was "admirable". I shouldn't have to supplement a workers shitty pay, so I don't. What makes a waiter/waitress more entitled to a tip over someone who stocks shelves at a grocery store or works in the fast food industry? Also I'm not American, shocking I know. If an employer isn't going to pay their staff a proper wage in your country then that's between the employer and employee

I think I'm in the smallest minority, but I haven't tipped in close to a decade. When people ask me why, I answer with the question "when was the last time you tipped your grocer l, fast food window attendant or the person at the hardware store that brought out your 100lbs of lumber? " answer is always never and I say exactly.

So everything you listed is something scheduled. Something people prepare for. Water suddenly not working is neither of those things. Ignorant take

I pay 65 for gigabit fiber with Telus. At the end of the 2 year deal they'll give me a better deal or Shaw will, I don't care who my isp or phone provider is, whoever gives me cheaper with more gets my money. Just be assertive with them, sometimes you'll be on the phone for 4 hours, but you save money and get faster speeds.
