Yeah, that kind of stuff is pretty commonplace, particularly in construction where labour is pretty fast and loose.

What a lot of people dont realize is that many employers in the construction industry want nothing to do with the hassle of someone whose wages are garnisheed. They'd typically rather hire someone else than put in the paperwork so it can affect their future employability.

And thats exactly why CRA is allowed to multiply whatever CC tips the server accrued by four.
