[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a nanny in school, who barely makes above minimum wage. My job is 1000000x harder than door dashing. I rarely use this service but when I do, no tip, because no one tips me for just doing my job. Ridiculous! [/quote]

This is stupid.  You work a job that doesn't depend on tips, and therefore make above minimum wage.  They work a tipped job, and make below minimum wage.  The fact that you find your job difficult doesn't mean other people don't deserve to be tipped.  Study hard because you need some kind of logic foundation.[/quote]

[b]There are no tipped *jobs* that make below win wage. [/b]There are minimum wage jobs where the first $X/hr in tips go to the owner.

In the case of (dubiously classified) independent contractors, the service provider accepts or declines a bid for the work. [/quote]

Um, yes there are. My DS is a waiter this summer. He makes $2.10/hour as his wage. The rest of his pay is from tips. The restaurant he works in does not have tip pooling or tip sharing (like sharing a % of tips with the FOH & BOH staff). The owners also take no tip money from the workers. Front-of-house & back-of-house workers where he works earn a traditional wage of $15+/hr. The restaurant only has automatic gratuity on parties of 8+.

DS likes the work because he likes being busy and moving about. He also has been fascinated with restaurants and cooking from a young age. On a slow shift, he will make at least $200 a day. This past holiday weekend he did very well. The least he earned was Sunday afternoon 2pm-7pm shift he picked up for someone where he only made $225. The most he made was Monday where he earned $440! He also worked 10am-9pm.  [/quote]

He ‘only’ made $225??? He’s a waiter not an investment banker! This is why I don’t over tip anymore, especially in states like california where waiters have to be paid $15+ an hour and there is no $2/hr nonsense. Same for door dash drivers! [/quote]
