Reason being: Waiters already make way below min wage and they must tip out 4% of every check total, (net sale + tip). These chain restaurants state that wait staff gets 20% tip on all bottom line checks. If only that was true. For example, if your bill was $60 (AFTER TAX), the server must pay the restaurant approx $2.25. It is also important for parents to teach their children, (ages 13-21) to tip appropriately, regardless of who they hang out with. When servers are paying bills or supporting families, it is depressing when you work real hard and numerous tables fail to tip appropriately. THANK YOU !!
