Never had an owner, or even a manager, that knew what kind of tips I made either, so what's the difference?

But yes, you are supposed to, and yes, I did. How accurately did I do so? I don't remember, but at least I paid some.

But if you're gonna go there, what about day laborers, or babysitters, or kids who mow lawns, or people who sell shit on Ebay, do they pay taxes?

The difference is that you do a better job in hopes of a better tip.

We dont really have 'day laborers', and students dont have to pay tax on earnings in Canada.
