[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The law has not fully gone into effect yet. Servers are still being paid the tipped minimum wage (i.e. below minimum wage). So yes, you still need to tip unless the restaurant adds a service fee. [/quote] So they’re getting minimum wage. No tips then. Compensation is now between the employer and worker, not me as the customer. Tipping was only for when staff made $2/hr. They don’t get tips once they reach minimum wage that far exceeds compensation like before. I don’t tip other jobs earning min wage.[/quote] But they’re not earning min wage yet. They’re earning the *tipped* min wage which is $8/hour. When the law brings them up to the minimum wage then no or reduced tip, but it’s a few years out. [/quote]
