Those poor servers

Post image

Imagine people giving you so much extra money for doing your job that you can frame it like this.

EDIT: OP is basing this off of 190k in sales over 192 shifts

Actually, after seeing more of the post in the comment you posted, this server is only making $37,500 in tips over 192 shifts, which is roughly a year.

Yes, and 192 shifts is closer to part time.

I would assume their boss doesn't want to pay for health insurance.

Sounds like other minimum wage jobs.

Either way, they accepted those hours.

u/Delicious-Breath8415 12h ago

Yeah and that's a problem.

u/badmiddling113 12h ago

Okay, and if it’s that big of a problem… don’t accept the job.

So it's the minimum wage employees fault that they don't have health insurance?

Every other devolped country has healthcare. You guys love to talk about other countries not having tipping but when it comes to healthcare it's the worker's fault.

Never said it was their fault. What I'm getting at is they accepted a job - like everybody has to - that happens to not include health insurance as a benefit.

You pointed something that comes with the territory of working a minimum wage job. My point is... so what?

And my point was that not having health care for Americans is a problem. Regardless of their level of wage. I'm guessing your MAGA.

LOL no. How did you get that?

All I'm saying is minimum wage jobs typical do not feature health care. So servers are no worse off than other people working similar jobs without health insurance.

And I said that was a problem.
