That's pretty funny. Illegal, most probably, but still a rather ingeniously straightforward approach to the opportunity.

And now, a very important question about tipping that has been bugging me for the last decade:

When you get your car filled up with gas at a full-serve gas station, are you supposed to tip the attendant?!? Are they really making wages off the tips, that is?

I know that tipping the cashiers and baggers in grocery stores in Quebec is not encouraged. Occasionally around Christmastime, the baggers are replaced by Cadets or Scouts who collect tips as funds for charitable functions. I don't know whether we're actually supposed to tip the gas atttendants, though.
