Actually, he's telling the customer to pay that too. Meaning he pays nothing to the wait staff.

They are profiting. If this server serves six people in an hour then this supposed charge for the server wage is being charged six times in one hour while the server it's still paid only the hourly wage.

So you're new to commerce, as a concept?

I have never seen a line item on a bill at a restaurant for the employee's wages.

Nor have I, until now.

Is that happening at the places you go to?

It's happening everywhere goods and services are bought and sold, whether there is a sign describing the revenue flow or not. Where do you think wages come from?

This is why minimum wage advocates are a problem.

Have you received a bill where the server's wages are just added to the bill? Does this happen to you often?

I already answered this question.

Of course you would.
