[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get confused about base salaries. From working as a waitress, I remember how pathetic the base salary was.  If someone’s providing counter service (like PP’s bakery example), I don’t know if they’re paid minimum or a lower salary based on tipping expectations.  As a result, I usually add a tip, because I don’t want to stiff anyone relying on it.  I wish there was some clear indicator about the pay structure. [/quote]

As was expressed in multiple threads before, if the tips do not add up to make minimum wage, the owner is supposed to compensate the wait/counter staff. By tipping every tom, dick and harry you are allowing the owners to pay their staff less than minimum wage and get to keep more profits[/quote]

This. If there was a way to pin this post, we should. IF YOU DON'T TIP, THE OWNER HAS TO PAY THE WORKER AT LEAST MINIMUM WAGE.[/quote]

Did you read the waitress above?! They pay their wage and then fire them, because tipping is considered a measure of performance.

That may even apply to jobs now that pay minimum wage. [/quote]
