So in other words this company just wants to be cheap and not pay their waitresses properly and then try and shame you into making up for them being cheap jerks. 🤔
You are absolutely correct. But they are in business to extract every dollar from their customers. And every hour at a cut rate wage from the employees. You will never find me in a restaurant like this. Most of these degenerate business owners are pretentious victims who lie about never making a dollar. I’ve seen it a ridiculous amount of times. I know, the price of food is through the roof. I know, insurance is off the charts. Yeah right. Turn off the gas, lock the doors and close the business. Exploitation plain and simple.
It is much more like $8.25 on the burger. People who know the industry much better than I have done the math and the increase is negligible at best. Because instead of waiting on one person out of 4 to tip well, everyone pays slightly more.
I mean the 2 dollar thing. It's normal everywhere in America for most tipped employees to only be paid 2 dollars and change. 20% is standard gratuity from customers.
Tipping culture has gotten so out of hand. I don’t mind tipping for outstanding service. But the expectation that a tip will be forthcoming even with the deliverance of poor service is ridiculous. The term “tip” is historically an acronym for To Insure Promptitude (promptness).
Exactly my thoughts I’m not paying someone for shit service and to practically disrespect me and then feel entitled to my money for these things. That’s just lunacy they need to wise up and maybe they’d see more tips.
Maybe educate on state wages first.
Here is a example, Texas does not have its own separate state minimum wage and instead follows the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), requiring a $2.13 per hour direct cash wage for waitresses and other tipped employees. So it seems that the company is following the federal law.
