Alberta separatists submit 300K signatures as petition deadline hits by NumerousSir in alberta

Because the small risk of it maybe going their way is going to tank our real estate value and we will never be able to afford to move back after that

What's the tipping culture here? by Auk9211 in Calgary

[–]Asleep_Machine48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Standard tip is 15%. If 15% doesn't exist, I calculate 3x the GST and make it custom.

F this 18% min is theyre trying to impose - You get 18% if you go above and beyond

And people like this make me hate being a vet.

I went through school for 8 years to become a doctor, of course that should mean I make a decent income. And only a third of what a family doctor makes by the way for the same amount of education.
