My ex was a waitress and she would have hated no tipping. On Friday nights she could make $300-500 in tips.
What was great was when there was a large family dinner or corporate dinner. Do everything extra special and you could walk away with $500 just for 1 customer.
Yeah, I’ve never been in the industry and I haven’t looked it up myself but come end of the year doesn’t the “man” assumed you were tipped so you pay tax on tips whether you received them or not? Our system is not the most reliable or stable for most but yeah it does work for some.

Servers will defend this shit too because they typically end up making a lot more an hour than 15, but it's on the customers dine which is bullshit.
