As far as figuring out how much to tip someone. Take the GST and multiply by 2. That gives you 14%. Pretty simple actually.

Oh, that's not the problem. I'm an engineer, I think I can figure out the math. It's the social pressure of knowing what's fair for the service that was given. Why should a customer have an impact on what a person makes? I would think that would be the responsibility of the employer, just like the rest of the world.
Yep, its not because we 'can't do the math' and need it made simpler.

Its the fact that its my responsibility to 'pay' this person a bulk of their salary... and its up to me how much. I don't think its a 'good' system, I think its stupid.
