[QUOTE="Alan, post: 1371193, member: 378"] My youngest son manages a restaurant, a higher end corporate steak house chain, not a sizzler type. He's started on the bottom and worked his way up, the wait staff, servers, cooks and host staff split all tips. I told him it kind of sounded unfair because the strongest person is making the same as the loafer. He kind of smiled and said the staff watches each other very close, cheaters and loafers are weeded out pretty quick... made sense at that point. For about three years corporate management was trying to get him to to a managers position, he kept refusing and told them it would be a huge pay cut with twice the responsibility. It worked, now all manager get an equal cut of the tips. It's sure changed since the early 80's, then your tips were your tips and the tax on the tips was simply on the honor system. As a young couple I remember my wife would pay very little attention to her pay check and we would focus on her tips for the day. We grew to have our difference, but she was very good at customer service and made big bucks as a waitress. [/QUOTE]
