Re: Question for Minimum Wagers
[ QUOTE ]
Existing minimum wage law accounts for the OP's hypothetical. You are allowed to hire someone for less than the minimum wage if other income will bring their wage above the minimum. Waitresses are typically paid less than minimum wage and are expected to earn more in tips. The OP would only have to pay his penny pickers 15 cents/hour.

I cannot pay them more than $5 per hour without losing money.
