“I chose a job where I work a 6 hour shift and expect to get 20% or more of whatever you’re arbitrarily paying because I carried over three plates and a couple drinks. For some reason, I get paid more if you ordered the $60 Steak and Lobster instead of the $18 hamburger and fries. I will actively fight against the removal of tips in exchange for a normal hourly wage, because I make way more from tips than what I’d make as a person who walks across a room carrying a plate”.
