Re: Hypothetical Management Decision re: non-tipping patron of restaur
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Why do people insist on trying to use $10 as a crap wage? Even if it were the waiter/waitresses only table (which is certainly isn't), he/she would be getting paid $10/hr by a table of 6. At the same time managment is throwing them an astounding $2.13/hour. Who's the cheapskate, again? [/ QUOTE ] Exactly. What's fairly depressing is the sense of entitlement that a lot of the wait staff in this thread seem to have. Even if they're only clearing $10/hr after tipping everyone out that's still $10/hr that they're not likely to report so it's free and clear (to be fair I have no idea how much or often servers report taxes). So that's what, like $13/hr that the normal tax-paying sucker would have to make to be equivalent? That's a pretty good wage. [/ QUOTE ] I think a more important point is that the employer pays minimal contributions and taxes if the wait-staff have to mostly rely on tips. |
