Ottawa Canada If you calculate the tip, be it 15 or 20 percent, on the total of your bill, which includes taxes, you will have an ecstatic waiter or bartender!
This is because it is the normal custom and practice to calculate the tip on the bill BEFORE the taxes are calculated! I've had relatives that worked in the food service industry and know just how horribly low their wages can be. For this reason, I tend to be fairly generous with tips, although there was a time years ago that I wasn't. Brian -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
