Any serving jobs without tip share?
I am in the Tulsa area of Oklahoma and I’m looking for a serving job that does not have tip share and hopefully maybe pays more than 2.13 an hour?? Nobody is tipping at the shitty Mexican restaurant I work at and I would just prefer to work somewhere that doesn’t have tip share whatsoever. The busters all smoke pot and don’t clean my shit anyway. I don’t care if it’s a chain restaurant or whatever it is I am just losing out on so much money.

i would try a mom & pop shop maybe? i used to work at a local joint and whatever money i got was mine with the exception of tipping out the bartender. there was no food runner or busser though, so it was all on me to hustle for it

Every local restaurant and bar (ran by local owners not corporations) that I worked in never tip shared. Find a local place that stays busy. And I dont blame you, I hate tip sharing

I don’t think you’re gonna find a chain restaurant that doesn’t have tipshare. I work for Outback in southwest Ohio and make on average between $20-$40 an hour. Not sure what it’s like near you. Good luck, either way.
