And this is why people need to read up on labor laws.

WHY would managers be included in a tip pool?!?! This is why tipping needs to be done away with. Pay them what the job is worth!


Yeah, not sure why managers part of it. Getting rid of tipping would cost you in higher priced menu selections at full service restaurants.


But you save on the tip. Seems it would all equal out.


naw man
many people don't tip

I’ve been in many countries where there is no tipping. I much prefer it. The problem was, keeping up with which was which. I’m sure I left tips at places it was not needed.

I agree with this


Meh, this is a rare practice that is hugely stupid and most people know better than to do something so stupid. I cant believe a CPA which they for sure have reviewing their stuff ever signed off on it. The tipping system works just fine.


Exactly. From what I know and from a reliable source, they're not very well buttoned up.
Wouldn't surprise me if they get nailed for more blunders.

lots of places are sneaking in a gratuity charge.. I prefer to tip as I feel. I also try to tip cash to the person whom I choose. I feel tips added to your card, don't get shared properly.


Just want to make folks smile, and spit coffee on their keyboard.

I’m trying to figure out why you’d tip at Hard 8. I’ve never been seated by a hostess, had my drink refilled, or food brought to me at Hard 8. I order, they hand me my food, I pay then then I find my own seat. Who would tip at hard 8? Also I’ve never had a bad meal at Hard 8. It’s not the greatest BBQ, but definitely not the worst.

Yeah, I have been wondering about this as well, and would think it would be a very small amount of money at the end of the day.

Kinda like the people holding up signs at redlights. A buck or two every light cycle and you making some decent money.

I can see doing it at sonic, they actually bring your food out to you. Sometimes on roller skates.
