I've been in the food and beverage industry over 20 years. At no time are tipped employees paid less than federal minimum wage. Sure, their hourly rate was $2.13 an hr, but the wages they received for working far outweighed the $4.25 - $7.25 that it had been since the early 90s.
If a server was to ever claim tips that came out to be less than the federal minimum wage, then the companies were required to adjust their hourly rate to match minimum wage.
People think that restaurants just print fucking money. The store I ran in TN brought in over $8 million a year in revenue, but only $500k -750k in profit. For a billionaire owner, it's not even worth staying in business.
Most restaurants run a razor thin margin and only make profit if they keep the volume up.
" Burger flippers " were never a tipped position anyways and typically the cooks were paid more by the restaurant than anyone else short of mngt.
Most casual or sit down restaurants would never be able to survive without the tipping culture bringing actual wages paid for front of the house staff down to a reasonable lvl. These servers and bartenders bitching about min wage are making more than the salaried managers for the number of hours worked.

I don't know why, but I always play Melee in ARPGs even though it's usually inferior, and sometimes unplayable. Probably gives me a bad impression of games. I remember dropping POE when its melee rubberbanding basically made shit unplayable, when I could have just switched to ranged instead.

Playing a Sorcerer because Im sure it'll be a fuck ton easier to solo farm shit with one over any other class. We've all got the vibe from the game that there is going to be bars to fill in the game - so might as well do it with a class thats easiest.
Whenever the girlfriend decides to play, though - Im going to be playing a Druid. Just so she can play her Necromancer and feel like a God standing next to a retarded fat guy. (Low key expecting the Druid to be buffed into a literal fucking juggernaut, too.)

Necros make the best restaurant managers. You never have to worry about living wages for the skellingtons and golems.

I went to Wolfgang's in Manhattan. My better half and myself. Night came to $400 after tip. Eating out even on special occasions is crazy nowadays.

Looks like PC version still won't have couch co-op? Some lies about not being able to log in to two battle.net accounts or something. I recall 2 boxing in WoW on one PC no issue, not sure why they can't fix it. PS5 version it is then =\

Ok lets start with what fucking "burger flippers" are making $45k a year and asking for tips on top? Cause I need to fucking apply there. Ya, servers make good money on tips, and they don't make fucking $22 hourly on top of it. Do you think anyone is going to be serving for $12 an hour plus no tips? Do you think restaurants will just start paying their servers $25 an hour and not increase prices to make up for it? "It's all adults who want to make it into a career" and "Lol its unskilled labor that only retards do, now go make me my dinner for $1 an hour while I do important actual career work that provides no benefit to anybody because i'm an adult" is a stupid argument. You know why these places have a bunch of older people who want to be able to pay their bills and survive? Because they can't hire any 15 year olds to do it for minimum wage.
It's like you missed all the people in this thread who started this by crying about how their combo meal isn't $1.99 any more. So weird.
