Hubby worked his restaurant job today. He brought home over $600, so it’s definitely usually worth it to work holidays.
I work as a greeter part time at local Waffle House. I work all holidays also. We are usually packed (especially on Thanksgiving) but it was very slow today. I got off 2 hrs early. Right before I left a regular left a $100 tip and asked that it be split for all employees working...so I got a $10 tip...woohoo My position can accept tips but I rarely get them as I wear a uniform that makes a lot assume that I am the mgr...lol
My sister was a waitress and bartender all her working life. She would always go out of her way to work holidays, especially Christmas, because of the tips then.
