Corrik7 01/15/21 4:01:42 AM #204:	red sox 777 posted... Corrik, do you have evidence for the claim that waitresses typically make $30/hr inclusive of tips? I said 25 on average now. I said they will make $30/hr if you take their current wages and add $11-$12 more an hour to it. I have never met a waitress that makes less than $20/hr when averaged out no matter how shitty the restaurant was. Sure they have bad days sometimes, but it averages out with the good days. And, yes, they ALWAYS bitch about the minimum wage laws and say how they are filing federal lawsuits for not being made whole on minimum wage, then when pointing out it is their average for their paycheck and that they made way more than it when they show they break down their pays, despite their one or two lousy days... They lose their shit about it. Averaging out everyone I have ever talked to, it is about $25/hr... And that's not accounting for the fact that waitresses tend to not claim all their tips. It is why they hate typically when people pay with cards a lot. Because 1. They don't get their tips right away. And 2. Their tips are guaranteed to get taxed this way. I think the IRS estimates 40% of go unclaimed, which is why it is hard to get an accurate number on what the average salaries are. I know a lot of people who claim just as much tips as they think won't generate a red flag on their taxes. And untaxed money is worth more than taxed money, obviously. https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2015/02/how-much-do-waiters-really-earn-in-tips/385515/ This leaves you with just an estimate on what is reported in tips. Which is going to be severely lower than actual. The biggest benefit to getting rid of tipping in America would be for the IRS to get more taxable revenue in. The end game though is much, much lower incomes for waitresses if this change would happen. You think they are helping them out when they are actually hurting them by taking money from them, expected jobs being lost, prices rising to consumers, and again... All during a pandemic ravaging the industry. --- Xbox Live User Name - Corrik PSN User Name - Corrik7 Currently playing: Control (X1) <cite>Corrik7 posted [p:949521067] in Politics C...
