[quote=Anonymous]Seems to me service industry is different from salaried work or full/part time hourly work (nurse assistant RN, retail, etc), because you don't get paid unless customers come in. For those comping that they don't get tips: you get paid whether it is a slow day or whether there is a ton of activity. If the massage therapist is an employee, the boys takes a big cut. If the massage therapist is the owner, they're paying rent on business space, buying supplies, paying business taxes. It's not a question of who works harder, but the expense/payment system is different in service industry. The massage provider may get 50$ in an hour, but if only 3 people are booked today that's not a "50$/hr job".I respect that. Can I afford regular massages? No. So I don't get them. But the once a year that I do, I'll tip 15-20%.[/quote]
