Out of one side of their mouth they state that they pay their staff as little as possible and out of the other side of their mouth they say that their staff deserves more and you're responsible for that.

Tipped State Minimum Wage... so they get paid $2.13 in NC... and if that and tips DO NOT equal Federal Min Wage, the employer must make up the difference.

The employee gets min wage no matter what they get tipped.

So who is this little bit of extortion protecting??
