If you work for less than minimum wage, you only have your stupidity to blame.

I work at $2.13 per hour. But my paychecks usually have big red letters on them that say "THIS IS NOT A CHECK" because tips are taxed (thanks 'merica) and I make enough in tips to completely cancel out my paychecks.

Good god, That's impossible! The minimum wage in Canada is $9.65/Hour.
CCsaint10:
There is a difference between minimum wage and waiting/server wages. If you are waiting tables, they don't pay you minimum wage because they know you will make up for it in tips (most of the time). If you don't make up for it, they are required by law to pay you at least minimum wage. However, some states in the US actually pay minimum wage PLUS tips, like Montana. It is sweet. :)
