[quote=Anonymous]Why are you people comparing servers to massage therapists? When I was 18 I waited tables for $2.13/hr. That was 21 years ago and their wage hasn't been increased at all. I always tip my MT 15-20% but don't put yourself in the same boat as servers. They truly live off of their tips. Their paychecks are always $0 due to having to claim tips and being taxed on a nearly invisible hourly wage. If they work 40 hours a week, that's only about $85. And you guys are complaining about $10 and even $16 an hour pay AND wanting the same tip percentage as someone who really busts their asses all day and night making a fraction of your hourly rate? I'm grateful for my MT and will continue to tip her as I always have but some of you are delusional comparing your service to someone who waits tables.
And to the MT that claims to really bust her ass and is sorry she doesn't have a 40 hour week desk job.... you need a serious and bracing reality check if you think I don't bust my ass and work just as hard or harder than you. [/quote]
