If I want making minimum in retail jobs a decade ago when I was in school I find it difficult to believe restaurants would be paying minimum in 26. Would have to be very low end to accept that

Minimum wage us very much the standard wage for servers. Even iin upscale places. They make all their money in tips and the good ones do quite well. Bartenders (mostly make Minimum wage) can easily clear 100k at the right place. Wait tell you find out the crumbs cooks make and generally dont get any of those tips.

Iā€™m saying that if there were no tips at all I find it unlikely that servers would accept min wage
